New Nazca Lines Discovered

The Nazca Lines are a series of geoglyphs located in the Nazca Desert, a high arid plateau between the towns of Nazca and Palpa on the Pampas de Jumana in Peru. They were created by the Nazca culture between 200 BC and 700 AD.

The Nazca lines cannot be recognized as coherent figures except from the air. Since it is presumed the Nazca people could never have seen their work from this vantage point, there has been much speculation on the builders' abilities and motivations.

Now, for the firs time since almost 30 years, a new giant picture has been discovered by a team of Japanese researchers.
