Qillqashimi was invented by Manet Sepúlveda in 2018 as an alternative way to write Classical Quechua (Lengua General), or maybe Ancash Quechua. The script was inspired by Canadian syllabics and the Hunter x Hunter alphabet.

Si, en los tiempos antiguos, los antepasados de los hombres llamados indios hubieran conocido la escritura, no se habrían ido perdiendo todas las tradiciones como ha ocurrido hasta ahora.

If, in ancient times, the ancestors of the people called Indians had known writing, they would not have lost all their traditions as has happened up to now.
