Colossal Doodles or Messages to Heavenly Visitors? The Nazca Lines (Episode #30)

The Nazca Lines, colossal geoglyphs, ranging from simple lines to intricate figures of geometric shapes, animals, and humanoids stretch across hundreds of square kilometers.

Why were they created? How were they made with such precision? And what significance did they hold for the ancient Nazca people?
