The main motif on this kilim is the ebelinde design. This was one of the main designs discussed by James Mellaart in his controversial publication (J.Mellaart, U. Hirsch and B. Balpinar: The Goddess from Anatolia, Milan, 1989). This book demonstrated links between kilim designs and some of the most archaic symbols for deities in pre-historical Turkey found in archaeological sites, notably atal Hüyük.
