In 2001 the Royal Library in Copenhagen launched a digital facsimile on the Internet of the unique manuscript Nuevá corónica from 1616 by the ethnic Andean Felipe Guaman Poma. These new technical studies supplement the facsimile with a description and analysis of the manuscript's features, and posits that the Copenhagen manuscript was the work of a single author, writing and drawing in his own hand.
