The prevailing theory is that quipu, or khipu (a system of knotted strings) is not only a record-keeping system, but actually a type of language.

Unfortunately, after those observations, most of the quipu were destroyed because they were denounced as instruments of Satan, so there are only a limited number left to study. Some scholars believe that the quipu don't contain language at all, and that they were only mnemonic devices helping their creators to tell stories they had already memorized. They are putting together a quipu database to try to tell whose theories are correct.
