Why might the nazca have created images so huge that they could only be seen from the air?

One theory suggests the Nazca created large geoglyphs, or images, to communicate with deities or gods they believed resided in the sky. Another idea is that the images were part of rituals or ceremonies performed to ensure agricultural fertility or water supply in a region known for its arid climate. The scale of the images could have also served as markers for traveling or ceremonial purposes within the Nazca culture.
