Ascher Databook Notes:
- Construction note: The twisted end of cord 1 is linked through the twisted end of the main cord so that it dangles from the end of the main cord. (See diagram for UR1100.)
- This is one of several khipus acquired by the Museum in 1907 with provenance Pachacamac. For a list of them, see UR1097.
- By spacing, the khipu is separated into 3 groups of 2 pendants each and then 2 groups of 3 pendants each. In each group of 2 pendants, the color order is LB, W.
