That's not a turkey you clowns. No European knew what a turkey looked like in the 9th century.
It's an eagle from the Book of Kells.

It wouldn't make a good mascot. Turkey is an animal of the New World, of the American continent. It was unknown to Europe (and that's the continent that matters here) prior to the time of Columbus. So it weren't a really good representation.
The other thing is that Turkeys are butt-ugly! That's what they have in common with the nation Turkey and its people, btw.

I like the new one, but i don't recognize any of the paintings. Would it be possible to tell what they are supposed to be or where they are from?

I posted it a couple of times already, but here goes: Roman frescoes from Pompeii, Codex Manesse, Icelandic, Spanish and English medieval manuscripts, Dutch book of hours, painting by Giotto, Book of Kells, runes and a Romanian monestary mural. It does lack some Eastern European artwork, but I can't push anymore details into it.
