EVENT INFORMATION
The Andean Khipu: Current Knowledge After a Century of Scholarship

One hundred years ago Leland Locke published The Ancient Quipu or Peruvian Knot Record, a seminal work in the study of the khipu, the enigmatic communications system of colored and knotted cords utilized by the peoples of the Andes in lieu of a script-based writing system. In celebration of this centennial, the Boundary End Archaeology Research Center (BEARC) is pleased to convene this one-day symposium in downtown Asheville, where seven khipu scholars will present the latest breakthroughs in khipu research. From the khipu’s origins in the Middle Horizon (ca. 600–1000 CE), to its vital importance in the Inka Empire (ca. 1450-1534), through its continued use in contemporary times, the khipu’s profound impact on Andean society—both ancient and modern—will be intimately explored. We hope you will join us.
