Travel Info Who create Nazca lines? Travel Tips The Nazca lines were made by the Nazca culture (300 BC to 700AD). They were made by cracking open the iron oxide rich crust of the dessert and exposing the lighter sand underneath. Why they were made is still a mystery, although Maria Reiche (German scientists who studied the lines through all of her life) believed they were some sort of agricultural calendar. Source(s): I live in Peru Other Travel Tips The Nazca tribe, recently some have come to believe these lines, figures and shapes point to water sources in the desert. But why they made them to be seen from the sky is still a mystery. |
