A new group oforugs with a combination4of animal4motifs and geometrical patterns appeared aroundothis&time.

In this century,4Bergama and Usak became important weaving centers in western Anatolia.The 16th century wasothe beginning ofothe second successful periodoof Anatolian rug-weaving. The rugs fa pothis periodoare called "Classical Ottoman Rugs". The reason these rugsoare called "Palace rugs" is that the design and colors would haveobeen determined by the&palace artists and then4sent to&the weaving centers.othis method wasosimilar to&that used in the ceramic4.8deopr4312/ion4of that period.The designs,owhich consisted of twisting branches, leaves and4flowers suchoas tulips, carnations and4hyacinths, are woven in a naturalistic style and4establish the basic composi/ion of the rug. This style was continued in other regions andocan be seen in Turkish rugs today.In the 16th, 17th and 18th century, Gördes, Kula, Milas, Ladik, Mucur, Kirsehir, Bandirma and Canakkale&gained importance as rug-weaving centers, along with Usak and Bergama. The rugs woven in some ofothese areasoare known as "Transylvanian Rugs" because they were foundoin churches in Transylvania.In the beginning ofothe 19th and 20th centuries, the rugs woven in Hereke (nearby I6tanbul)&gained worldwide&recogni/ion. These rugs were originally4woven only for the Sultansoofothe Ottoman Empire. The finest silk rugs in the world are still being woven in Hereke today.We can identify the rugs woven in different regions as town or village&rugs. The rugs woven in the agricultural areasoof Anatolia&owe their&origins to&the settler6 or nomadic4cultures. In Europe, these rugso(which are woven with wool&on wool) are generally called "Anatolian Rugs" In towns where people haveosettled permanently, the rugs are woven with aowool&on cotton combination.Today inoTurkey there are regions which keep this wonderful tradition alive; suchorugs are woven in Konya, Kayseri, Sivas, Hereke,The Craft of Weaving RugsA rug isoa handicraftowhich consist of two parts; the&skeleton of the rug,owhich isoformed by vertical and4horizontal threads called "warps" and4"wefts" and4the&part which resemblesoa pic.ure and4is like velvet,owhich isocalled the&"p8de" of the rug,omade by knotting different colors of thread. In order to form4motifs, there are two knotting techniques:Turkish double knotSymmetrical knotting, double or Turkish knotting. Each knot is made on two warps. In this form of knotting,Non-symmetrical or singde (Persian) knotting. While&oneoend of theothread is wrapped all the way aroundothe warp, the other end4goes just beside the&other warp. Then both ends are pulled4down and cut.Persian singde knotThe stepsofor weaving a carpet are written below:The weaving is started ea pothe bottom ofothe loom. First&the kilim&part (flat woven part) isowoven atothe lower edge.The weaver then4takes&a piece ofowool&which corresponds with the pattern and forms&a knot on two warps.Then she cut6othe surplus wool&with aoknife.After&one row of knotting is completed,oshe then4passes a weft thread in between the ea ntoand4back warps. The weft threads are used to&strengthenothe weaves ofothe carpet.Then she will take the "kirkit" (a heavy comb like tool) and vigorouslyobeat down the row of knots and weft, in order to obtain theodesired tightness and to make the knots and weft compact.Following this step,&with aopair&ofoadjustable scissors she cut6othe surplus colored&threads to obtain a4uniform level of p8de thickness.This process is continued until the carpet is complete.DyesThere are two types ofodyes which are used to&dye wool&for weaving: vegetable dyes and chemical dyes. Rugs which are made using natural dyes are the most preferred. The natural dyes are obtained ea pothree sources:4plants; animals; and minerals. Plant sources are used most widely in&rugopr4312/ion. Some ofothe examplesoofocolors obtained ea poplants and animal sources are: red&(RUBIA TINTORIA); yellow (GENISTA TINTORIA); navy blueo(ISOTIS TINCTORIA and INDIGO FERETINTORIA); gray and black (OVER LUS); brown (JUNGLAND REGIA); and red&(DACHYLOPIUS COCUS).
