Native American Turkey Wingbone Calls
Entry/Object ID
NATH001A0002
Description
These Native American artifacts are likely turkey calls made from the radius bones taken from a wild turkey's wings. The aperture of the radius bone and inside diameter of the bone is such that when air is drawn through the bone by means of suction, it reproduces clucks and yelps reminiscent of the wild turkey's language.
