Nazca Lines

Considered as a great mystery, due to the fact that the archeologists have not still  discovered which is the purpose that the Lines had,  these consist in  several hundreds of figures that include designs as simple as lines up to complex zoomorfas, fitomorfas and geometric figures that turn out to be planned in the terrestrial surface. In addition these figures only can be observed totally from the air, that is to say overflying the zone. The lines of Nazca are perfect, technically speaking. The straight lines enclose a perfection with a few small diversions along kilometres. 
The drawings are well proportionated, especially if it is thought about their dimensions. These lines also are a testimony of a great geometric knowledge of the former inhabitants of this zone. Many hypotheses have appeared to give explanation to this mystery that is kept intact in spite of the passage of time, and it is because  the  climate is dry  and with scanty rainfalls of rains, with a soil rich in minerals, have permitted that these lines are kept until now.
