Ivory comes from a lot of things, but i doubt this came from an extinct animal one that went extinct durong the fucking bronze age.

Also the ivory probably came from like a narwhal or whale or something.

Here's the page where the artist mentions the mammoth Ivory: https://web.archive.org/web/20081113092306/http://www.elfic.fr/scrimpages/alchimie/albedo.htm

Fuck guess it was made of mammoth ivory, guess i just assumed most of it had rotted away by now. Which still shows my retardation since im very well aware there are ivory artifacts found in europe dated in the tens of theousands of years.

Don't sweat it. Until those post I had never considered the possibility of mammoth ivory being a thing. In my head, ivory is very much a modern thing, that comes only from elephants, even though I know better
