So the american anthropologist Gail Silverman claims that after 35 years of research into the inca tokapus (also know as quelcas), has found irrefutable evidence that confirms that the incas in fact had writing.
So far she has found 30 roots, 10 suffixes, 6 affixes and 1 verb called "kutiy".
Scholars have always known that tocapus have some sort of meaning (we even know the meaning of some of them) and that the Incas didn't put them randomly, but there has always been skepticism that it was actual writing.
She stated that we need at least a hundred years to get where today the Maya studies are.

What the fuck did you think parchmwnt was?
I would say that it is a form of writing but it isn't a form of writing that the old worlders had such the Latin system or Chinese which is written with some type of stylus on a flat surface unlike a system such as the ancient inka's which so different that people have a hard time understanding it and don't believe it to be a writing system. For example one may say that viruses lack certain qualities indicating that they aren't alive even though they are it's just that they are a different format of life. Same with inka writing being compared to the old world standard of writing. You can't judge a fish by how it climbs a tree
