OKay, I've seen a few variations of the turtle. The one on the units page, is small, with short arms? And in the screen Greek Waters, the turtle looks completely different!
Are there several different kinds of turtles, is it just constantly changing art, or are they upgrades?

Your the one like my sister arnt you? The one who asked about the whale, or something.
Anyway, sorry to be so blunt, but i havent got a clue. In the alpha there was a bug (i think) which wouldnt let you build the turtle. There wasnt even an icon for it in the dock.

I'm pretty sure its just changing art. I remember the Naval Battle SS was the first one with the new turtle.
The old turtle was a sea turtle, and now this one looks more like a tortoise. I'm not sure which one looks more egyptian.

The Turtle has been appearing in screens for quite a while, since nearly the start of AoM's development. So over that time it's changed in appearance quite a bit.
The units pages for reference, contain current art as of the time of the alpha build - so that would be a bit over a month ago I guess.

There is no longer a turtle. It is now a Tortoise, even though ES still calls it a turtle. It has legs, not flippers, therefore it is a tortoise.
