Asmalyk

Camel-flank hangings, presumably always made in pairs. The most usual form is pentagonal but there are some rare heptagonal examples known. Large rectangular weavings by the Salor with indented "T' -shaped compositions are also presumed by many Turkmen experts to have served the same function. Rectangular weavings without specific 'T' -shaped compositions but which do not seem to have had backs, are often called jollars and are presumed by some writers to have also been used as camel-flank hangings.
