The instrument consists of & knotted cord or “quipu,’ unearthed in a prehistoric tomb near Cajamarca. While it has been well known that the Incas made use of “quipas” in |common with many other aboriginal peoples in the new world, Mr, Loaysa is the first historlan who has been able to interpret and describe fully |the use to which this device was put. | |His studies show that the Incas had a well developed system of arithmetic based on the decimal system, and that |they employed the “quipu” for pur- | poses of rapid calculation in subtrac-| |tion, muitiplication and division. | The “Master Quipu.” .The “master quipu” discovered byi Mr. Loaysa consists of a cord about 116 yards long, containing 100 knots. | These knots are divided into 10 un-| & |equal sections by as many silver| Z;:Ink ;'ny.tff&':"} :lfgrl“'::::‘fl#e:;:::ibeldl. representing the odd numbers y ‘!from 1 to 19.
