− | '''Yalameh''' is a subtribe of the Lori population in Iran. The Lori, also called "Lor," is the oldest tribe known in the country. Over the centuries, the Lori population has spread from the west central region to the Persian Gulf in southwestern Iran. The Yalameh is mostly settled in the northern portion of central Iran. Yalameh rugs and carpets were marketed successfully to Western European consumers because the weavers were able to produce rugs in both tribal dimensions and standard European room sizes. The Yalameh nomadic designs and fine wool helped increase their popularity.<ref>Moheban, 2015, 618</ref>
