The oldest known BooIsIscepIng.

In the primitive villages of the An
des, scattered through Peru, Bolivia
and Ecuador. the descendants of the
ancient Incas depend upon the "dpu"
for keeping all their accounts. 1t was
in use when Pizarro conquered Peru,
and the Andean Indians have never
improved on it, It is the oldest known
form of bookkeeping. The 'klpu" Is
simply collection of knotted strings.
Differently colored strings denote diff
ferent articles in daily use and ten dis
tinct knots the ten numerals. In the
