Khipu Notes:
Ascher Databook Notes:
- The khipu is threaded through a wooden bar. Figure 1 shows the way it is attached to the bar and Figure 2 shows details of the bar itself.
- This is one of several khipus acquired by the Museum in 189 9 with provenance Marquez. The group includes KH00116, KH00117, KH0138, KH00142, and KH00143. For a comparison of them, see #4 below.
- By the manner of attachment to the bar, pendants 1-30 are separated into 4 groups of 9, 8, 7, and 6 pendants. With the excep tion of the second pendant in group 1, the groups have the same basic color order but with some positions non-existent in the smaller groups. The color order is: YB, BS: 0B, LB, YB, LB, YG, BS, LB, 0B. The non-existent positions are the last in the second group, the 4th and last in the third group, and the 3rd, 6th, and 7th in the fourth group.
- Comparison of KH00116, KH00117, KH0138, KH00142, KH00143:
- KH00116 and KH00117 are designated by the same Museum number. KH00117 is loosely tied around the wooden bar through which KH00116 is threaded. The 4 cord colors used on KH00117 are 4 of the 5 colors used on KH00116.
- Each of KH00116 and KH0138 is threaded through a wooden bar.
- KH00142 and KH00143 are designated by the same Museum number. On each of them, the first cord is linked through the twisted end of the main cord.
