For over 5,000 years the Yupiks had villages along the Bering Sea and fashioned sled runners, net weights, chopping tools and other utensils out of readily available ivory. That ivory became hidden from the world for centuries, when it was discarded in the village middens (dumps) along with tusks and bones of walrus, whales and seals. Only now is that ancient ivory being unearthed, excavated by the descendants of the primitive Yupiks that worked it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFree Shipping on U.S. Online Orders Over $85.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boone Trading Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45096464973877,"sku":"BTTUSK- 16","price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1381\/4973\/files\/IMG_0557.jpg?v=1774912485","url":"https:\/\/www.boonetrading.com\/products\/fossil-beach-washed-walrus-tusk-16","provider":"Boone Trading Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
