One Inca to another: Boy she's pissed- she knit me a sweater!

Or they could just be decorative knots.

The Inca Royals may also have been real Giants! That is correct. Nine foot tall giants. The ancient Inca head pictured is alleged to be over 12" around. Ancient history just keeps getting more weird every day. They have found cocaine in the hair of Egyptian mummies, ancient phoenician ships wrecked off the coast of Bazil and evidence that Solomon's mines were in Missouri. That is if you believe author Glenn Kimball

As for myself, I do not have any opinion at all. Just pointing out that that we may not know as much as we think.

Only highly trained Mayan scribes used and understood the glyphs, and they jealously guarded their knowledge in the belief that only they should act as intermediates between the gods and the common people.

Same thing with the early and medieval Christian Church. At one time in Europe it was illegal to possess a Bible written in any other languages than Latin or Greek.

Maybe the knotted strings are coded recipes for "Ritual Human Sacrice Pot Pies".

Glenn Kimball's site has research links. Just noticed them myself. There is all sorts of history on that site. Direct link is Here. Click the research link. He has a lot of research on the Irish, ancient Israel and other historical items.

In the search for definitive proof of his discovery, which will be detailed in a book, Professor Urton believes he is close to finding the "Rosetta stone" of South America, a khipu (sic) story that was translated into Spanish more than 400 years ago.

Absolutely phenomenal. If he breaks the code, he will go down in history. The knotted string record is a quipu. Thanks for posting this.
