Apart from their inherent beauty they are very important indicators of stylistic change as little monumental sculpture exists from between the years of 500-1050. Elephant ivory has been prized since prehistory and its neutral color has made it particularly suitable for embellishment with jewels, and for uses ranging from book covers to combs."0880450
