Ivory tools are implements crafted from ivory, which is a dense material primarily derived from elephant tusks, but can also come from other animals like walruses or Narwhals. Historically, these tools have been used for various purposes, including carving, writing, and crafting due to ivory's workability and durability. The use of ivory has significantly declined due to ethical concerns and legal restrictions surrounding wildlife conservation and the protection of endangered species. Today, alternatives like synthetic materials are often used instead.

They didn't carve mammoth ivory. In fact, they barely had tools and the ability to create art as you describe. They were hunters and gatherers and were nomadic.
Originally, Ivory as a dentine type material & tough enough to withstand many years of use/abuse, was used for piano keys as well as handles on many tools & utensils. With the invention of plastic material & the need for animal conservation, ivory has become illegal to use.
The easiest way to carve ivory is with a moto-tool fitted with a carving bit, but hand tools that are used for hard wood (such as whittling knives, chisels, saws, drills, scrapers) can also be used. What tools will be best to use will depend on: the type of carving (sculpture in the round, relief, scrimshaw) the hardness of your ivory, the finish you want to achieve (smooth, hand hewn), the purpose of the carving (artistic, decorative, religious, functional).
