Sabine Hyland made the first phonetic decipherment of an element of a khipu! The khipus were used most famously by the Inka, though their use continued in the Andes until the mid-20th century. They are a writing system using knotted cords to record information. Hyland's decipherment of the names of two moieties at the beginning and end of an epistolary khipu from 18th century Collata is the first khipu decipherment since Leland Locke cracked the decimal code in the 1920s! She proved that elements such as ply direction, cord colour, and cord fibre were part of how information was encoded into khipus and has been popularizing the idea that the khipus are a three-dimensional writing system.
