Ascher Databook Notes:
- Construction note: At 27.0 cm. there is a knot on this subsidiary. Pendant 6 is slipped through the knot.
- This khipu is associated with khipus KH0070-KH0080. See discussion under KH0070.
- By spacing, there are 8 groups. Each group has 2 pendants with one subsidiary on each pendant. With the exception of one subsidiary, all groups have the same color pattern: W sub KB, KB sub W.
- With the exception of one blank pendant (Pl in group 5), and one broken pendant of unknown value (P2 in group 6), for all groups:
- 6 ≤ P1 ≤ 9; 6 ≤ P1 + P1s1 ≤ 10
- 10 ≤ P2 ≤ 15; 14 ≤ P2 + P2s1 ≤ 20
- 23 ≤ P1 + P1s1 + P2 + P2s2 ≤ 29
- Double long knots appear on 4 of the 8 white subsidiaries.
