Nazca Lines – What are they?







The Nazca Lines is an ancient geoglyphs located in southern Peru in Nazca desert. The area stretches more than 80 kilometres (50 mi) between the towns of Nazca and Palpa. Scholars believe that the Nazca Lines were created by the Nazca people itself from their culture during the late 650 AD. The figures are occasionally simple geometric straight lines and some animal like figures such as hummingbirds, spiders,monkeys, fish, sharks, orcas, llamas, and lizardsthat can be seen from above or aerial view. Still from this year they are consider mystery as some other people doesn't believe it was created by the Nazca people. It is still in a hot seat and people are still debating whether they are created by the Nazca people or it involves extraterrestrial beings. Many believe and question the Nazca people if they are really the creator of this unbelievable geometric figures because some says that there are no signs of flight during their Era. To create a beautiful line like that of Nazca Lines with huge and stretching size, you may need an aerial help to check and see how the workings of line will do. But some archeologists can't find any sign of flight yet though there are certain evidences that justifies the Nazca Lines was made by the Nazca people which is the tools they used to engraved such design. Nazca people are indeed smart one that some scholars believe that their are some existence of advance technology in their Era. Some says that it was the extraterrestrial beings who have just mistaken as to be their gods that made the lines. Study shows and some other theories refer Nazca lines are made for rituals, spiritual, ceremonial relics, etc. They believe Nazca Lines are used for some ceremonial activity to thank their Gods and to produce some development like increase in crop production, etc. Still Nazca Lines are indeed on the top header when it comes to mystery files.
