What kind of rug is this? Too long for prayer rug & too short for runner/hallway rug?

I found this at my regular thrift store & bought it because it appeared old + there wasn't a lot of other things that day!

Can anyone tell me what I have; it looks too long to be a prayer rug & too short to be a runner?

Any information would help.

 

Does look hand-knotted and worn, but if you want opinions on original use, you should provide measurement.

 

I will take in a bit, sorry - running my week-end estate sale at same time (so I can make some money to go buy more Monday!)

 

It's a hangs-around looks-pretty. it was probably made to fit an area of someone's home. A hallway or a landing, probably. Maybe the butler's pantry if they really liked the butler?

 

The internet seems to think it's a Marasali rug from the Caucus. Doesn't look too old or finely made.
