Help with Textile

I have this piece of textile that I am trying to identify the location where it was made.  It has a geometric border that hints at an Islamic county but also has the human figure in the upper right corner. Textiles are not my wheelhouse and a Google search did not bring up a similar textile.  Anyone out there have any thoughts?

Thanks, but I thought I was the one who went through life upside down.

Thank you so much.  I will continue to do my research before I list.  I need to establish a ballpark value to determine whether to keep it in the frame or take it out of the frame.

Re: Help with Textile

Taking it out of the frame is risky business, especially if it's old and fragile.
