Text of a paper read during the Symposium of the Armenian Rugs Society, New York, September 26, 1982 by the eminent carpet authority, Ulrich Schurmann. Schurmann demonstrates the likelihood that a 2,500 year old rug (the Pazyryk Carpet) discovered frozen in a tomb in Asia, was made in Urartu, an ancient state around Lake Van in Asia Minor.
