Oh sorry, should have refreshed my geography knowledge before posting. But quipu is decimal, that's no encryption ;-) (Recently read an article on ancient numbering systems that pointed out that big empires worked only with good arithmetics, i.e. quipu or Indian/Arabic numbers succeeded, the Roman empire grew too big for their complicated numbers...

I must admit that I will feel confused if the question will be mixed with
ancient maya numbers .
well, you're an original 'roman' guy so you'll get the easy creation

Better to say no, otherwise one can argue that I'm also able with
Etruscan numerals
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etruscan_numerals
BTW, some linearity equations like
x = - IV
can be problematic (actually {'nulla' , 'N' } are valid solutions, but it's
an historical matter)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_numerals
One can say that such questions should be avoided because there are no
reasons for non-roman people to know about roman numerals
(at least they are the same of non-maya people to know about maya numerals),
and it's generally true .
But, given that we are talking about ConTeXt and given that \romannumerals
is a ConTeXt macro,
in this particular case such questions are valid.
This open the door to similar questions (cfr core-con.lua,core-con.tex for
persian,thai etc)
and given that Unicode sooner or later will cover all kind of writing
systems of the human race,
I expect that some day some questions will be mixed with maya numerals.
