Comments by "" (@premodernist_history) on "The Khipu (knot what you think...)" video.

  1. Fascinating video. Looks like there's way more to khipu than what world history textbooks let on. Seems quite reasonable that they could have combined multiple encoding methods. After all, that's what the Japanese and Akkadian/Hittite writing systems do. Also, I love the synergy of you and Veritasium both releasing videos about knots in the same weekend.

  2. I was tied to the screen the whole time. I could knot khipu from watching
