Во время моей недавней поездки в Перу я пролетел над линиями Наска. Как люди 2000 лет назад могли их рисовать и с какой целью, ведь сами они не могли видеть все рисунки?
2,000 year old Nazca Lines in the desert that can only be seen from a plane — could ancient humans have drawn this without help?

Aren’t there literally mountains all around these?

People could 1000% do this thousands of years ago
Wow, you have an incredibly low opinion of the human species if you don’t think we could have done something like this.
it’s not even symmetrical at some areas, still great human work!
what would you think a comet was 2500 years ago? or a meteor shower? what would you have thought of lightning? it’s reasonable for them to think there was something conscious in space looking down on them. it’s also reasonable to think they could figure out how to scale up a drawing. it’s a stretch to conclude aliens travel to Earth based on this evidence. I say this as someone who wants to believe…
You ever give children chalk and a huge peice of land? They do the same thing. Adults with limited art stuff could totally do this
Yes they could have, it’s not extremely complicated to do.
No aliens came from different galaxy and made locals draw giant pictures. Perfectly reasonable explanation
I’d sooner believe that ancient people figured out hot air balloons than jump to «aliens». Like seriously, we gotta stop the ancient aliens shit for all the things people in the past did because they were «dumb.»
Fuck, the human brain has barely evolved in the past 10,000 years, we’re digging shit up from «before civilization could have possibly existed» 25-50,000 years ago.
At some point, maybe just maybe, humans could have done it. For fucks sake, there are so many crazy, absolutely undiscovered things we’ve done in our past.
It could be done without help. A surveyor could mark this out with some mathematics, and a labour force could build it to the surveyors marks. The real question is, who was the target audience?
I’d rather be a hammer than a nail 🎶
markers. same way we use flags.
I think humans drew this stuff to ask for help
Why would humans 2000 years ago need help to do this? They’ve the same brains that we do.
How have they not eroded or deteriorated at all over the years? Or does the distance just hide this?
My take on this is that the question isn’t as much “could they have” but “why” would they have. One could argue if they had help, but no one could argue logically, that these people were *convinced* that intelligent beings could see this from the air. While building these, no one standing on the ground could even appreciate it, for the truly colossal amount of work.
Big triangle at the end prob the mothership
Uh yeah why wouldnt they be able to? Man people dont give humans enough credit, like just cause they didn’t have our technology doesn’t mean they were stupid, they were still humans just like us. Have you never drawn a big piece of art on a frozen lake?
Mathematics. Its always funny to me that people view the ancients like they were stupid or something.
Of course they could, ancient humans were just as intelligent as we are, more in some ways
I love this type of music. Anyone know where I can find the cassette?
It had to have been ET. Humans would have drawn dicks.
Tears of the Kingdom
Mother to her kids, “Go play, go draw a monkey in the sand or something.”
«without help» I mean look at them…they are far from perfect….if these were with help I’d hate to see the ones they did without…
you would be surprised on the things people can plan out when they are not working 70 hours a week, glued to their phones, or binge-watching television.
I am shocked one of these wasn’t a dickbutt
Yes, they are clearly imperfect… why is this even a question
For sure, anything is possible if you’re bored enough
Could they have? Possibly but what would be the point if they didn’t have something to see them from the sky or someone else to view them.
I always thought they created them because they thought only gods could see them.
Ask yourself WHY aliens would help the indigenous people draw a giant monkey on the ground.
Doesn’t it kinda belittle the Incas that they weren’t smart enough to make these drawing or build machu Pichu without the help of aliens?
Could ancient humans have done this without help? Yes, yes they could have.
Bc not everyone is as dumb as you op
There *are* mountains nearby y’know
You can also see them from a hillside
Yeah dude people have been able to measure distance for a long time.
