Warrug.com has a selection of war rugs – traditional Persian or Oriental rugs featuring martial images, such as helicopters, tanks, guns, etc. They come from, primarily, Afghanistan and were first woven around 1980.

One rug shows a map of Iraq, which has been dated to between 1929 and 1940 by using the railways which are shown.
