Do Incan people use picture writing?

The Incan civilization did not use a conventional system of picture writing like hieroglyphics. Instead, they employed a system called quipu, which consisted of knotted strings to record information, such as census data and financial records. While quipu conveyed complex information, it was not a writing system in the traditional sense. The Incas relied on oral tradition for storytelling and history, with quipu serving as a supplementary method for record-keeping.
