EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a piece of ancient Peruvian history - the Peruvian Quipo. These coloured cords, adorned with intricate knots at specific points, were used by the ancient Peruvians and Mexicans as a form of non-verbal communication. Dating back to BCE times, these quipos played a crucial role in regional communications and enabled individuals to convey messages without using verbal language.
The vibrant colours and detailed knots on the quipo are not just decorative elements but hold significant meaning in this historical form of communication. Each cord and knot would represent different information or concepts, allowing for complex messages to be conveyed through this unique system.
Studying artifacts like the Peruvian Quipo provides us with valuable insights into the ways in which ancient civilizations communicated and interacted with one another. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and the ingenuity of our ancestors in finding innovative ways to connect with one another.
This print is not just a visual representation of an ancient artifact; it is a window into a fascinating chapter of human history that continues to intrigue scholars and historians alike. The legacy of the Peruvian Quipo lives on through images like these, preserving its significance for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
