The Pazyryk rug design is one of the oldest carpets in the world, dating around the 4th-3rd centuries BC. The Pazyryk rug was found in 1949 in the grave of a Scythian nobleman in the Bolshoy Ulagan dry valley of the Altai Mountains in Kazakhstan. The Pazyryk rug had been frozen in the ice and it was very well preserved. The rug has a ribbon pattern in the middle, and a border which has deer, and warriors riding on horses. All parts of the rug are made of wool, including the pile and the base. It is now in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Worth knowing: The design will vary between sizes.
