Re:Patterns Not Visible From Ground? (Score 1)

2000 years ago the Nazca culture in what is now Peru drew large figures in the desert by scraping away the top soil layers. These figures also are not identifiable from the ground. Were the Nazca an ignorant civilization or one skilled in science and mathematics? If this catches on, perhaps in two thousand years to come, archaeologist will be trying to figure out why our culture made these drawings.
