Turkish weaving culture has a rich product diversity such as floor mats, saddlebags, bags, sacks and mafraş. The one this study examines is called “ölümlük-dirimlik” weavings. Traditionally, dowries of young girls contain these weavings both for themselves and their spouses. Plain weavings with different techniques such as cicim or zili, which are woven as carpets or rugs to wrap the corpse while being taken for burial, are locally known as “wrapping rug” or “afterlife weaving”. They are donated to the mosque for the sake of the deceased upon returning from the cemetery. In this study, Burdur and its villages being an important weaving center, the way in which this tradition continues albeit at a diminishing pace in the region was examined while 29 pieces of plain weavings with zili technique found to be produced with the same purpose were analyzed in terms of the raw materials and equipments used, weaving technique, color, motif and pattern. In addition, as a result of the research, local weavings were evaluated under these headings; design principles, pattern, rhythm and repetition, movement, balance and contrast, dominance and harmony. Although the products were few in color and pattern, a great deal of variety was observed, showing the designer's sincere contributions and imagination.
