"The geometric ones could indicate the flow of water or be connected to rituals to summon water. The spiders, birds, and plants could be fertility symbols. Other possible explanations include: irrigation schemes or giant astronomical calendars." – Cynthia Stokes BrownIn 1927, Today, millions of people fly, and everyone who does views the ground thousands of feet below. But in 1927, air traffic was a relatively new phenomenon, especially in the wilds of southern Peru, and when the first planes passed over the sprawling expanse of the Nazca Desert, passengers looking out their windows saw an incredible sight that they could hardly believe. On the baked desert floor, someone had carved broad, perfectly straight Lines that ran for miles. Even more amazingly, some of the Lines twisted together to form the shapes of animals, birds and insects. But when the Lines were investigated further, it was discovered that they were mostly undetectable from ground level. As researcher Viktoria Nikitzki put it, “The Lines themselves are superficial, they are only 10 to 30 cm deep.” Since their discovery, these "geoglyphs" (the name for any large carving viewable from the air) have attracted attention from around the world, and their popularity is matched only by the mystery surrounding them. Why were they created? Who drew the Lines? What technology did they use to fashion them? Their beauty and mystery have, at times, led to farfetched theories that have credited extraterrestrials; as one National Geographic article on the Nazca Lines put it, “At one time or another, they have been explained as Inca roads, irrigation plans, images to be appreciated from primitive hot-air balloons, and, most laughably, landing strips for alien spacecraft.”Despite elaborate modern fantasies about aliens and spaceships, the New Age theories have obscured the genius of the Lines’ human creators. In fact, the creation of the Lines was actually well within the technology of the purported builders, and the Lines could be drawn without extraterrestrial excavators. Luckily, decades of dedicated archeology have begun to slowly peel back many of these mysteries, even as new discoveries have opened the door for new questions and new puzzles. To this day, anthropologists, archaeologists, and other scholars continue to debate whether the Lines had religious importance, astronomical importance or were made for entirely different reasons.History’s Greatest Mysteries: The Nazca Lines explores these amazing Lines from a number of different angles. This book looks at the physical context of the Lines (including the geology, climate, proximity to population centers, etc) and explains how the unique landscape allowed the Lines to be created in the first place and aided in their preservation over the centuries, only to be discovered anew in the 20th century. It also examines just what the Nazca Lines are, including what forms they take. This book also looks at the culture of the people who lived there, including the other archaeological remains of the Nazca people and what is known about their economy, society, and political structure. Along the way, History’s Greatest Mysteries: The Nazca Lines comprehensively covers the facts, mysteries, and theories surrounding the phenomenon. Together with pictures and a bibliography, you will learn about the Nazca Lines like you never have before, in no time at all. ⭐AS SEEN ON HISTORIES GREATEST MYSTERIES⭐⭐ SEASON 4 EPISODE 15 ⭐ ⭐ AREN'T MYSTERIES GREAT?⭐The Nazca Lines are one of our planetary mysteries that won't be solved in my lifetime. The most important thing is to rush and preserve them.The many shapes were created at a time when they were in a desert. You'd have to have your head in a hole not to know that the weather on this planet is changing. The lines have suffered from excessive rain and even from unexpected snow melting, a lot of it all at once.And then there's the Earth's biggest enemy, human beings. It isn't enough that our carelessness has been the number one factor in the weather changing, but a few stupid humans have actually run over the lines. They aren't very deep, nor are the lines themselves very wide. Yet, like a gardener stomping on a mole's tunnel, there are people who wanna see if they're more powerful than the lines are.Stomping on a mole's tunnel doesn't work. The moles came to your lawn because you had grubworms. Get rid of the food, the moles will move. (I recommend milky spore.)But how do you get rid of idiots? When you pass a law against something the idiots call their relatives and seem to attack.I don't have the answer.When I was unable to see what all the picture said was there, I went to the internet.Couldn't see the figure on all the internet pics either!But I remember watching a program about the Nazca Lines several years ago and seeing everything clearly. Maybe they only showed the figures that were clear; I don't remember. Still, it would be sad if future generations had to learn about the Nazca Lines from a video because an idiot convention went to the desert and did wheelies on the figures.This book explains what is known about the Nazca people and the tribe that came before. Several hypotheses are put forth as to the purpose of the figures. I went to the internet and could find nothing more current though a scientist proved a hot air balloon could have been built with materials available to the Nazca people.He and his students built the balloon and flew. I wonder if the tribe would have spent that much time and used that many resources when surviving in a desert was difficult enough.The figures remain a mystery, and may always be so. This book taught me more than I previously knew about them and led me to hope that the preservation will FINALLY be taken seriously. They are too beautiful to be lost, even for a minute.
