In the middle of the <strong>Nazca desert Peru<\/strong>\u00a0there are a series of\u00a0trenches that form figures and drawings that are possible to see from the air.\u00a0They are <strong>the Nazca Lines<\/strong>, a wonder that attracts thousands of passengers every month.

Despite the fact that they were discovered only a few decades ago, the desert\u00a0 has become famous.<\/p>\n<p>The question everyone asks about these hieroglyphs is <strong>how did they do it?<\/strong> Dozens of researchers have tried to answer this question and none have been able to give an\u00a0 answer with enough certainty. It is only known that the dark top layer of earth and rocks was removed, exposing the clearer limestone floor, which explains why they can be distinguished.<\/p>\n<p>From previously mentioned a question arises, why have they not been wiped out? It is because the rains on this desert are scarce, extremely rare and with the humidity of the dawn hardening the limestone every morning as it dries, <strong>the Nazca lines<\/strong> have been able to survive centuries without being worn out.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4206\" style=\"width: 1610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4206\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-4206 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/aeronazca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/slide3.jpg\" alt=\"The Spider: one of the most famous Nazca Lines in the World.\" width=\"1600\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aeronazca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/slide3.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/aeronazca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/slide3-300x66.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aeronazca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/slide3-1024x224.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aeronazca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/slide3-768x168.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aeronazca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/slide3-1536x336.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" title=\"\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-4206\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong><em>The Spider: one of the most famous Nazca Lines in the World.<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Some archaeologists who have studied this phenomenon of the <strong>Nazca desert Peru<\/strong> looking for the reason for its existence and why they are shaped like animals,\u00a0anthropomorphic plants or beings.\u00a0Some have come to the conclusion that they are\u00a0airstrips for\u00a0<strong>alien<\/strong> ships and to brighten the view of the <strong>aliens<\/strong> who guarded the desert from space.\u00a0Even though some lines point to astronomically relevant places,\u00a0it does not specify any particular astronomical event.<\/p>\n<h2>Who made the Nazca Lines in Peru?<\/h2>\n<p>All in all none of the theories,\u00a0or those with greater consistency have been proven.\u00a0The truth of the matter is that<strong> the Nazca Lines<\/strong> remain a mystery.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the natives of <strong>Nazca<\/strong> were aware of their reliance on these rivers, so they treasured the water that was so scarce around them.
