Abstract :Lezgins are one of the oldest and most culturally diverse peoples in the Caucasus. They live mainly in the northern regions of Azerbaijan - Gusar, Guba, Khachmaz, Shabran and the Dagestan Republic of the Russian Federation. In the culture of the Lezgins, which has a unique place in Caucasus and Azerbaijan, various fields of art, including carpet weaving, have been passed down from generation to generation for hundreds of years, and are a traditional art form that manifests itself both in everyday life and in art. Although the history of carpet weaving goes back to ancient times, its development dates back to later periods. Carpets, which are considered one of the most important elements of the population\\\'s daily life, have always played an important role not only in the interior design of houses, but also in the decoration of the walls and floors of private and public buildings, palaces, mosques, madrasas, caravanserais and houses of worship in the Middle Ages. This art form is closely related to the lifestyle, worldview, religious beliefs and aesthetic taste of the Lezgins. The short history and the features of carpet making of Lezgin people are researched in the paper.Keywords : Halı Dokumacılığı, Lezgin Halkı, Kültür, Etnik Gruplar, Dokumacılık
