[b]
put a feather in your cap if you connected the bird with the country called turkey and chose answer b. back in the late 1500s, the american bird was confused with an african bird commonly known as the "guinea fowl" or "turkey-cock." the name "turkey-cock" derived from the fact that the bird had been imported from territory europeans thought of as turkish. it was the custom of the time to consider the country turkey as the source of anything exotic. the name "turkey-cock" was naturally attached to the new american birds that resembled the familiar guinea fowl. even after the confusion between the birds stopped, the name "turkey-cock" stuck, eventually shortened to simply "turkey."
