  The island of Taquile is located on the Peruvian High Andean Plateau, in the Titicaca Lake, in the department of Puno. The candidature concerns the cultural space of Taquile Island and its textile art, which is produced as an everyday activity by both men and women, regardless of their age, and worn by all community members.
  The Taquile population was relatively isolated from the mainland until the 1950s and the notion of community and family is still very strong among them. The weaving tradition on Taquile island goes back to the ancient Inca, Pukara and Colla civilizations; it thus keeps elements from pre-Hispanic Andean cultures alive in the present. Besides Aymara and Spanish, the Taquile people speak Quechua, an indigenous language of Peru.
  All weaving is done on pre-Hispanic fixed and pedal looms. The most characteristic garments are the so-called chullo, a knitted hat with an earflap, and the calendar waistband, depicting the annual cycles connected to ritual and agricultural activities. The calendar waistband has attracted the interest of many researchers as it depicts elements of the oral tradition of the community and its history. Although the design of Taquile textile art has introduced new, contemporary symbols and images, the traditional style and techniques are still maintained.
  Taquile Island has two schools, one of which is a specialized school for learning Taquile handicrafts, contributing to the viability and continuity of the Taquile tradition.
  塔奎勒岛,位于秘鲁的安第斯高原、的的喀喀湖,是普努部落的一部分。塔奎勒岛的文化空间及其纺织艺术构成了不分性别、年龄的人们每天的活动内容,他们每个人都要穿这些纺织品。
  20世纪50年代以前,塔奎勒人一直与大陆隔绝,部落与家族的观念非常浓厚。塔奎勒岛上的纺织习俗可追溯到古老的印加、普卡拉、考拉文明,至今仍鲜活地保留着西班牙殖民前的安第斯文明的痕迹。除了艾马拉人和西班牙人以外,塔奎勒人也讲一种秘鲁的本土语言——盖丘亚族语。
  在这里,所有纺织品都用殖民前的脚踏式织布机织出。最有特色的衣服叫做“扣勒”,即带有御寒耳罩的编织帽和记述一年仪式、农业活动的日历腰带。日历腰带对部落传统和历史的描述方式吸引了很多研究者。尽管塔奎勒纺织图案已经引进了新的、当代的符号和图像,但它仍然保持着传统的风格和技术。
  塔奎勒岛上有两所学校,其中就有一所职业学校传授塔奎勒手工艺,这对塔奎勒传统的生存和延续有着巨大贡献。
