Khipu Notes:
Fieldguide Notes:
Khipu 2 of 3 (three khipus tied together).
The primary cords of khipu 1 & 2 have been joined by tying them in an overhand knot. The primary cords of khipu 2 & 3 have been joined by winding two mottled cords around each khipu's primary cords.
The mottled cords are the style and thickness of pendant cords, colour codes YB:DB and PR:FB.
All cords appear to be made of cotton
These khipus are discussed in the following videos:
