Nazca Lines
The Nazca Lines are a group of very large geoglyphs made in the soil of the Nazca Desert in southern Peru.
They were created between 500 BCE and 500 CE by people making depressions or shallow incisions in the desert floor, removing pebbles and leaving differently coloured dirt exposed.
There are many figurative designs of animals and plants.
The figures include pelicans (the largest ones sized around 935 feet long), Andean Condors (443 feet), monkeys (360 feet), hummingbirds (165 feet), and spiders (150 feet).
Geometric shapes, such as triangles, trapezoids and spirals, are also found.
Some designs have been associated with astronomical functions as well.
The Lines were declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1994.
