Lines In The Desert Plains Chapter 4: An investigation of the Nazca Lines

Lines In The Desert Plains

Chapter 4



Could the geoglyphs of Nazca and the Paracas be the images or symbols of ancient animal gods or patterns of the constellations ? Their constellations would not look the same as the ones we would know from ancient Greece-because they would be represented by different creatures. Thus they would look different from that perspective, plus they would have moved-all stars move they are not stationary objects. Are the ray centers pictures, maybe a part of a gigantic map ? If the people who made them lived 2,000 years ago with only simple technology. How did they construct such precise figures ? It seems like they were made to be seen from above. Many have proposed every imaginable explanation.

But there is this strange road or band in the Pisco Valley region that is in Paracas territory. It is about 30 feet wide and goes for about a mile through the desert highlands It is made up of small holes spread apart.





Pisco Valley and the location of the Band of Holes



These strange holes stretch along uneven terrain, and have been there so long that the local people hardly noticed it. This is a very fertile valley, with many ancient sites overlooking it on the bluffs. No one really saw the big picture until someone flew over it. Composed of man-size holes they have been carved into bare rock near the Pisco Valley on a plain called Cajamarquilla.

Archeologists have speculated that they were dug to store grain. But others disagreed that there were easier ways to store grain than in these holes carved into barren rock.

Archeologists have also speculated they were tombs. But no bones or artifacts have ever been found there. The holes have no covers to seal them as one would do with a tomb.

Some of the holes in this band look as if they had been drilled there with precision. They vary from 6-7 feet in depth, yet some are very shallow as if they had not been completed although surrounded by those that have.

Visitors from another world come to mind when seeing that these holes had been precisely dug into solid rock for over a mile through mountainous terrain. It is as if there is evidence of a massive drilling rig moving along methodically, testing the geology for minerals or precious metals. Modern lasers can do the same thing, the band ends unnaturally in a shaded area in the mountains. If the ancient astronauts were present, I would ask why are they present ? This may be the answer, they were mining for some mineral or metal that they used on their own world, or minerals to power their spacecraft. Peru produces the following metals in large quantities: bismuth, copper, molybdenum, silver, lead, tin zinc, rhenium, gold and iron. Many of which are used in the aerospace industry today. Peru is a major producer of copper, and many of these metals can be produced as by-products of copper refinement. Peru also produces lead and some of these metals can be produced as a by- product of that process. To give you an idea of what some of these metals can be used for, rhenium is used in making jet aircraft engines, both lead and molybdenum are used as radiation shields. Silver has the highest electrical conductivity of any element. Silver also absorbs free neutrons and is used to make power rods in present day nuclear reactors. Zinc can be used in making three kinds of batteries and zinc sulfide lasers. So the ancient astronauts may have had a good reason to go looking for natural resources in this region. The Nazca Line runway (ray center) area is a little over 85 miles southwest of the Band of Holes in the plain above the Pisco Valley.
