The Inca civilization was characterized by modernities, including more than 30,000km of roads, advanced architecture, distance communication, and a accounting registration system in the so-called quipus.
The quipus were collections of strings with us, in which each collection was like a worksheet, and each string was a cell containing a number (integer or fraction) or operation. About 1500 kilograms survived the European invasion, and are carefully studied.
