Animal figures as well as geometric shapes are part of the mysterious Nazca lines best seen from the air in the Peruvian desert. The figures--as well as triangles, rectangles and straight lines--run for several kilometers across the dry barren land. The desert floor is covered in a layer of iron oxide-coated pebbles of a deep rust color. The ancient peoples created their designs by removing the top 12 to 15 inches of rock, revealing the lighter-colored sand below. Anthropologists believe the Nazca culture that created them began around 100 B.C. and flourished from A.D. 1 to 700; Nazca, Peru, by Melissa Farlow / Design Pics
