Notes:
This khipu is part of a set (UR087, UR088, UR089, UR090, UR091, UR092) that were analyzed by Manual Medrano in his article Toward the Decipherment of a Set of Mid-Colonial Khipus from the Santa Valley, Coastal Peru.

1. Several cords end with a hint of dark brown; based on existing cords, these were probably dark brown spliced to the top color. Again judging from similar existing cords, they could have had a 1E knot.
