In its thousands of years of history, Turkish culture and art has interacted with cultures from Central Asia to Anatolia. As a result of these interactions and nomadic life, patterns, symbols, stamps and motifs have been revealed between cultures. As it can be understood from the sources obtained as a result of the literature review and included in the relevant sections of the article; It is thought that the sources of cultural and artistic utilization of Turkish and Indian cultures are Central Asia. Likewise, in the view of the information obtained from these sources and the interviews made during the field research, it is thought that the shamanic belief has an effect on the emergence of the motifs between the two cultures. It is also known that the concepts of unity, togetherness, commitment, infinity are explained in the meanings of the “Bukağı” motif on Anatolian rugs. In the interviews conducted during the field research, it has been reported that this motif, called “Bukağı” in Anatolian culture, is connected with a trunk by two arrowheads in Indian culture, and these two arrowheads point to the sky and the earth. A total of 10 rugs, one each from Yozgat, Ordu, Eskişehir, Niğde, Konya, Kırşehir, Adana and Sivas, one from Central Anatolia Region and one from Karakeçili nomads, are schematically similar in both cultures but have different meanings. In this study, information, findings and photographs about the schematic and formal resemblance of the bukağı motif to the motifs found on Indian rugs are given.Navajo,
