Dear Erika Gal,

à propos your poster : it's not surprising for me to see walrus 
ivory/ivories of that time and culture in your country : the ivory 
handle of ottoman/turkish swords is regularly made of it. The first time 
I made that determination was at Benaki Museum Athens 1978 (on a tenth 
year after wedding trip), the more recent some years ago at Damascus. 
Inbetween, I have seen  maybe more than a dozen of exemplars in 
differeznbt places, as Alexandria for instance.
