Her theory is known as the Astronomical Theory. Maria carefully measured and mapped out many of the Nazca Lines herself, using a ladder and other instruments to painstakingly mark out the exact length and shape of the geoglyphs. She used her map to line up the etchings in line of the rising of the most important stars and planetary events like winter and summer solstices. By studying the collections of stars with images of the animal geoglyphs, Maria found that formations like the spider and monkey resembled star constellations like Orion and Ursa Mayor. She believed that the Nazca lines were an atronomical map.
Astronomical calendar theory: suggests the lines were used to track celestial events. Nazca cosmology theory: proposes the lines represent sacred symbols and figures in Nazca culture. Water cult theory: posits the lines were linked to rituals associated with water and fertility. Landing strips for aliens theory: suggests the lines were created for extraterrestrial visitors. Agricultural calendar theory: proposes the lines were connected to agricultural cycles and rituals. Reason or observation points theory: speculates the lines were used as markers or direction indicators. Pilgrimage path theory: posits the lines guided pilgrims to religious sites or ceremonial centers.
No, the Nazca Lines are located in the Nazca Desert in southern Peru, a region accessible to the public. The lines are best viewed from observation towers or small airplanes.

Scientists believe that the Nazca lines were created for ritualistic or ceremonial purposes, possibly related to religious or astronomical beliefs of the Nazca civilization. They may have served as pathways for processions or as markers for important locations or events.
Yes, the Nazca lines can be seen from the ground but they are most clearly and effectively viewed from the air. The intricate and large-scale designs of the Nazca lines are best appreciated from above due to their size and complexity.

Are you sure that you don't mean the Nazca lines? If you do they are in the Nazca desert in Peru.
no
Because they are lines drawn in the Nazca desert. Pretty obvious, I would have thought!
The Nazca Lines are a series of ancient geoglyphs located in the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. They were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994.
It is Nazca LInes
The Nazca lines were built approximately two thousand years ago, by the ancient Nazca people, who ruled much of Peru until the Mayans came and conquered.
