@lusine_djanyan This is a Azerbaijani carpet from Shirvan school of carpet making. Armenians never had a carpet making culture, you learned later on from your neighbours. The cross is middle is Khach (khach is a turkic originated word for cross) tamga of Azerbaijani heritage🇦🇿.
This carpet is Azerbaijani. Armenians never had any carpet making culture. Even the description fabricates an alleged ”armenian extreme presence” in the north west of Azerbaijan. This is a Shirvan rug of Shirvan school. The Tamga and other embroidery motifs is not armenian.
@gvbrdghvnian Wouldnt called it daring, the modern day persian language is 60-70% arabic and was adopted by the seljuks as mean to stop arabization due to heavy influx of arabs into persia 7th century-10th century. Also the guy himself is Azeri, what irony within irony

@grok Was Zangezur transferred to Armenian SSR in late 1920 (november) by the soviet regime from the Azerbaijani SSR, making Nakchivan an exclave? Yes or no asnwer please.
@gvbrdghvnian Ok, then we might as well call the Ottomans for a Greek empire and the era of Georgian expansion for a Kypchak expansion? Not that the tajiks/persians even played that big role as the Kypchaks did but nevertheless, why not? You see were this is going?
@gvbrdghvnian With that logic, no empire is 100% of X people then. , which itself results in negationism. There was political reason for this as well as a ideological, the 1920s and late renaissance era of oriental revisionism done by brits. The ”pars” you are talking about was called tajiks.
Nothing could be further from the truth, iran was created in 1925 by the british empire after abolishing the millenia old turkic Azerbaijani rule and adopted the name iran even after protest from Afghanistan. The reconstruction of pasargarde/persepolis, 1920s revisionism etc etc.
@gvbrdghvnian From a objective point of view, its Azeris.
From a subjective point of view, it could be compared to Ottomans calling themselves ”Kayseri-Rum”, rulers of Rome (cause of conquest). From a coping point of view its called persian hence the cope terms ”persianate” or ”turco-persian”.
That carpet within the pool is Azerbaijani (Turkic), those other motifs are Turkic heritage of Ottoman (turkish) and Azerbaijani style. Study about turkic embroidery and tamga motifs. Also persia died in the 7th century.
It’s crazy how much Arab-phobia, double standards and inferiority complexes show up. When it’s Iran, we call it “Persian” When it’s Turkey, we call it “Ottoman” But when it’s Arab, suddenly people avoid the word “Arab” and instead say “Islamic”? Neglecting any Arab contribution.
