Turkey feathers applied to a length of yucca cordage in the Jemez style by Eric Blinman, director of the Office of Archaeological studies. Woven into a blanket, these feathers provided ideal protection against the cold. Blinman’s demonstrations of cordage fabrication and blanket weaving are a popular part of the outreach and educational programs of OAS. Courtesy of Eric Blinman. Photo by Blair Clark.
