Abstract

Ornamental art in Turks has evolved to fit the nomadic lifestyle. The ornaments on the harnesses, belt buckles and other clothing materials are important for showing the artistic understanding of the Turks. In the nomadic lifestyle, the ornaments applied mostly on portable material have begun to be seen on the architectural artifacts with the transition to settled life especially in Uyghur period.
