Among other things, he will re- view the qualities that separate a great Navajo blanket from a good one. He will talk about the market for Navajo blankets, and will touch upon the subject of fake Navajo rugs being made in Turkey and sold as Ameri- can Indian weavings. Very importantly, he will show us how to tell the difference between a fake blanket and the real deal. Jerry will bring classic period examples from the Becker collection, including a poncho serape, a Ute style First Phase chief blanket, an early Third Phase chief blan- ket, and a Navajo manta. Jerry is encouraging mem- bers to bring in any items related to southwest weaving —Mexican textiles included. He will date and evaluate pieces brought in by members. This will be a rare opportunity to learn about one of the most important weaving traditions from one of the world’s leading experts in the field.

    The International Journal Of Humanities & Social Studies (ISSN 2321 - 9203) www.theijhss.com THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES & SOCIAL STUDIES How Color Combination Changes in Textiles of Different Districts Depending upon Dye Plants Used Dr. Şerife Atlihan Professor, Department of Traditional Turkish Arts, Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Marmara, Istanbul, Turkey Abstract: There are different types of designs and color combinations in traditional textiles in different districts in Turkey and in other countries. Turkey is a large country 814.578 square km. and has different types of landscape and climates. The country is long in a horizontal direction. There are seven topographical areas in the country on the map. They are from west to eastern: 1. Marmara (Northwest), 2. Aegean (West), 3. South (Mediterranean), 4. Central, 5. Eastern, 6. Southeast, 7. Black Sea (North), but there are not strong cultural differences between those areas. Generally mentioned are three areas: West, Central and East Anatolia. We have some similarities in textiles and other objects between all those areas. The local people use the materials and dye stuff in textiles which are found in their areas. Therefore, these types of textiles have their unique characteristics. There are traditional designs and motifs in each district, but the color pallets in the traditional textiles do not depend only on the local people`s taste, material, technique and size. It depends especially upon the dye stuff and dyeing methods. Those rules are the same for all kind of textiles like garments, covers and wall hangings, etc. It would be displayed all these types of textiles from Turkey as samples, but it is impossible to give all samples in this article.

Anatolia's thousands of years of cultural heritage, folklore, and life have been processed not only in paintings but also in rugs in order to transfer it to its works, sometimes with realistic, sometimes impressionist or abstract interpretations. The first carpet samples were found in East Turkistan with the Pazırık tomb in the Altai in line with the examinations and information made in the various excavations and it is estimated that they were built in the BC 5-3 century. Objective: Seals identity that the carpet-rug lived in Anatolia in Turkey date is the record of relations with extant prior rights. The characteristics that convey past cultural experiences to today still continue. It enables culture to be passed down from generation to generation with its unique fabric shape and patterns. Method: With this research, it has been tried to be revealed the depictions of traditional rugs in carpets-rugs that were influenced in the works of Turkish painters the period after 1882 by literature scanning. Conclusion: As a result of the study, it is observed that the painters were not independent from the Turkish customs, traditions and culture while they were painting.
