Construction Period of the Nasca Lines in the Pampa of Nasca

A comprehensive analysis of the Nasca Lines, utilizing high-resolution satellite imagery, reveals a previously unrecognized network spanning the entire Pampa de Nasca. This network includes multiple 'line centers' and connecting lines that extend north-south across the plateau, challenging earlier assumptions about their distribution and connectivity. The study suggests that these lines may have served as pathways or information transmission routes, though their exact purpose remains unclear.
