Nasca Lines: A Mystery wrapped in an Enigma
We analyze the geometrical structure of the astonishing Nasca geoglyphs in

that the first delineated images consist of straight, parallel lines and that
having sophisticated their abilities, Nasca artist moved on to the design of
more complex structures.Comment: 6 pages, 1 color figure and 2 graphs. To appear in Chao
