Khipu Notes

Ascher Databook Notes:
  1. Construction note: The twisted end of cord 1 is linked through the twisted end of the main cord so that it dangles from the end of the main cord. (See diagram for UR1100.)
  2. This is one of several khipus acquired by the Museum in 1899 with provenance Marquez. This group includes UR1106, AS 107, UR1124, AS132, and AS133. For a comparison of them, see UR1106.
