ArchIvory Logo with an elephant with a floral ivory carving in the background. The text reads: Join the ArchIvory team to explore the fascinating histories of ivory artifacts in Indiana! Every ivory carving has a story to tell, and each one connects Indiana to the wider world. What does your ivory carving mean to you and your family? We invite you to share its history. The most powerful histories begin with the materials and stories we inherit, not just the objects found in museums. Share your story! Connect with us! Scan the QR code to find out more about the project at archivory.org. There is a QR code directly to the right of this text We are interested in inheritances, not contemporary ivory carvings, and so we will not interview anyone unless they are certain they or their family obtained the object before 1989, when the CITES ban went into effect and it became illegal to transport ivory across international borders.
