Two scientists from Yamagata University in Japan reported finding two new geoglyphs in southern Peru’s Nazca province. According to the archaeology faculty chief at Yamagata, Yoichi Watanabe, the drawing of the human head is 4.2 meters long and 3.1 m wide. The geoglyphs have most probably not been identified in aerial surveys before because of their small size.

The other geoglyph of what appears to be an animal measures about 2.7 meters long and 6.9 meters wide. It is not known when it was created.

Looks fake. BUT its intresting nonetheless. bit like the whitehorses of England. However that does not look human.

I wouldn't write them off that quickly. It is possible that they have been missed before due to their size in comparison to the more famous ones. On the contrary the lower image looks a little suspicious.

Any chance you can add the second geoglyph picture again??   I'm curious to see what it looks like.
Maybe we can all discuss what we think it is

That was real btw

It -could- be fake. Although, it is pretty scary nonetheless.

The pic of the alleged face could be just about anything.  From the crappy condition and resolution of the pic, it could very well be shadows from bushes.  If you really want to see something, just stare at random squiggles for a while... you'll start seeing stuff.

Well, they're nazca lines. Not photograph portraits.
Why would you think they are fake? Why would someone fake Nazca Lines, which are already established to exist?
I suppose it gets attention, but we're not dealing with Chupacabra footage here.

I don't see why it couldn't be real. After all, to achieve the Nazca lines, the indigenous people must have had practice runs before tackling a much larger project.

Same idea in Egypt. We do see the earlier pyramids as test runs before creating the last ancient wonder of the world.

Me too. Im more sure that is real then that is not real.

[knighterror]

Technically, in a literal sense, the Great Pyramids are the first ancient wonder of the world. I mean they are the last to survive, but all 7 existed at one time or another.
