On the Cover: This Turkey Tail measures seven inches long by two and three-quarter inches wide. The material from which it was knapped is Harrison County flint, a medium gray in color with swirls of crusty white and dark gray. It shows traces of having been covered with red ochre. It is perfect in its composition. Photography by Steven R. Cooper
