The Parap Quipu of the Proclamation (Wechua: Parap'u Punta Santiago Rimay Khipu) is a ceremonial duplicate of the Proclamation of Punta Santiago in quipu form, held in the Archive of National Documents at the Royal University of Parap'u in the Wechua Nation. Created in 1691 AN by graduates of the newly established Royal Academy of the Wechua Language, the quipu was commissioned by the university's founding rector as both a scholarly exercise and a safeguard against loss of the original at Chinchero. The Parap'u version follows the same encoding conventions as the Chinchero original but includes additional scholarly annotations on subsidiary cords explaining archaic Classical Wechua legal terminology for students.
The quipu serves as the primary teaching artifact for advanced quipucamayoc students studying constitutional and diplomatic encoding. Unlike the Chinchero original, which is displayed only on ceremonial occasions, the Parap Quipu is accessible to qualified researchers year-round under supervised conditions. The Tribunal of Traditional Claims has accepted interpretations based on the Parap Quipu as authoritative when the Chinchero original is unavailable for consultation. A detailed comparative analysis published in 1738 AN by Academy scholar Tupaq Rimachi confirmed that the two quipu encode identical substantive content, with variations limited to the Parap version's pedagogical annotations.
