Khipu Notes:

Ascher Databook Notes:

1. This is one of several khipus acquired by the Museum in 1904 with provenance between Ica and Pisco. For a discussion of them, see UR1098.
2. By spacing there are 3 groups of 2, 6, and 5 pendants respectively. All pendants in group 2 are of the same color.
3. Several pendants have multiple unit knots so that there may be as many as 3 distinct values in a position. (See, for example, P12.)
4. The last 3 pendants in group 3 are united by being the same color. The value of the first pendant in the group is the sum of the values of these last 3 pendants.
