Analyzes the institution of the "acllacuna" within the fremework of a typology of Inca garments and textilles in which are established the functions assigned to textiles in the political and social contexts of the Inca state. The acclla were specialized weavers, used by the incas to create bonds of kinship with rebel communities by means of negotiated marriages, to spread the state ideology of Cuzco, and to stimulate gifts of fine cloth, of great ritual value in the Andean world.
