Khipu Notes
Ascher Databook Notes:
- Only clusters of single knots are used on the khipu. The lower knot cluster position has been interpreted as the units position and the higher as the tens position.
- Construction note: AS101 - Part 2 consists of 2 khipus tied together. The 2 parts are listed separately as AS 101 Part_1 and AS 101 Part_2. A discussion of them is in AS101 - Part 2 Part II.
Primary Cord Notes:
The twisted ends of the main cords of the 2 parts are tied together with a square knot.
