摘要

摘要：本文分析了安第斯打结的交流绳索khipus是如何表明其主题的。西班牙编年史家证明了不同类型的基普斯的存在；然而，学者们还不知道khipus是如何或是否指示了他们存储的数据类型。民族志证词显示，连接在初级绳索上的针线束（kaytes）是受试者的指示物。本文调查了印卡后的kaytes，通过跨学科的方法研究了殖民地Huarochirí的kayte，为kayte的解释提供了一个模型。这一关于主题指标的新证据支持了希普斯通过显著性的层次编码信息的假设，并进一步解释了这一假设。

Subject Indicators and the Decipherment of Genre on Andean Khipus

Abstract:This article analyzes how khipus, Andean knotted cords for communication, indicated their subject matter. Spanish chroniclers attested to the existence of different genres of khipus; however, scholars have not known how or if khipus indicated the genre of data they stored. Ethnographic testimony reveals that needlework bundles—kaytes—attached to primary cords served as subject indicators. This article surveys post-Inka kaytes, examining one from colonial Huarochirí through an interdisciplinary methodology that provides a model for kayte interpretation. This new evidence about subject indicators supports the hypothesis that khipus encoded information through hierarchical levels of significance, and furthers decipherment.

期刊介绍： Anthropological Linguistics, a quarterly journal founded in 1959, provides a forum for the full range of scholarly study of the languages and cultures of the peoples of the world, especially the native peoples of the Americas. Embracing the field of language and culture broadly defined, the editors welcome articles and research reports addressing cultural, historical, and philological aspects of linguistic study, including analyses of texts and discourse; studies of semantic systems and cultural classifications; onomastic studies; ethnohistorical papers that draw significantly on linguistic data; studies of linguistic prehistory and genetic classification.
