The History of Visual Communication
The Nazca Lines are immense geoglyphs situated in the Nazca Desert, a high arid plateau that stretches 53 miles between the towns of Nazca and Palpa on the Pampas de Jumana in Peru. They were made by the Nazca culture between 200 BC and 600 AD. There are several individual figures, ranging in complexity from basic lines to stylized hummingbirds, spiders, monkeys, and lizards. The Nazca lines cannot sure be understood as coherent figures except from the air.
