Khipu Notes:
Ascher Databook Notes:
- Construction note: The end of the main cord is bent back and inserted through the strands of the cord.
- Both groups of 10 pendant cords have the same color patterning. Each is subdivided into subsets of 6, 2, 2 pendants each. In Group 1 these are BB, BB-W, BB, while in Group 2 they are W, BB-W, W. In both groups, where there is one subsidiary on a pendant cord it is BB and where there is a second subsidiary it is LB in Group 1 and LC in Group 2.
- In both groups:
- the value of pendant 2 equals the value of pendant 4;
- the value of pendant 5 equals the value of pendant 6; and
- the value of pendant 3 equals 3
- In Group 1, the sum of the values on the BB colored pendants equals the sum of the values on the BB colored subsidiaries.
- In both groups the last ( tenth) pendant is related to the sums of the other pendants in the groups.
- In Group 1, the sum of all subsidiary values on pendants 1 to 8 equals the value on pendant 10.
- In Group 2, the sum of all subsidiary values on pendants 1 to 8 equals the value of the first subsidiary on pendant 10. The subsidiary value on pendant 9 equals the value of the second subsidiary on pendant 10. Hence, the sum of all subsidiary values on the first 9 pendants equals the sum of the subsidiary values on the tenth pendant.
- The sum of the first 9 pendant values in Group 1 equals the value of the tenth pendant in Group 2.
