Khipu Notes

Ascher Databook Notes:
  1. By spacing, the khipu is separated into two parts. The first part is 6 pendants, 3 MB:W followed by 3 KB:W, each with two positions of units knots and the values 1 & 9. The second part is two groups of 4 pendants each. Only one of them has a double units knot. The rest of them have values 0-19.
  2. KH0226 and KH0227 have some similarities. Both are groups of 3 by color followed by groups of 4. KH0226 is 3 groups of 3 then 2 groups of 4. KH0227 is 2 groups of 3 then 2 groups of 4. The values in the groups of 3 are made up of double units knots. On KH0226 they are all 1 followed by 6-9 while on KH0227 they are all 9 followed by 1. On both the groups of 4 have values 0-20.
