Were the Nazca Lines created by Ancient Astronauts / Aliens?

This will now be a 2-Part post since I've recently deleted an old website of mine and decided to combine the related pages before I start adding all of the stand-alone articles amid multiple blogs and whatnot. This is perhaps the wrong blog for this type of subject, as it is not very mundane, but I suppose it doesn't really matter. But back to the subject at hand...

Part 1: "Were the Nazca Lines created by Ancient Astronauts / Aliens?"

This is another one of those great mysteries that have many of the ancient astronaut theorists all riled up with excitement and curiosity.  Of course, many people will come up with any mundane excuse they can imagine, just to try and deny the possibility of extraterrestrial life ever visiting Earth in the past.  However, more and more evidence seems to point more in favor towards the belief that the first Earthmen may have actually been ancient astronauts travelling from another world.  The impact they had on mankind may be more than what some give credit for.  In my opinion, along with many others, the proof is not only in a lot of ancient artifacts and mysterious structures built with advanced technologies, but also in ancient texts.  Hell, even the Bible has references to UFOs and space travelers, sort of like the beginning of the Book of Ezekiel, for example.

Anyway, this page is going to provide a couple resources and a few images of the Nazca Lines found in Peru, which is associated with the Inca civilization.  Related links:  Lost City of the Incas, and Incas - Aliens & Ancient Astronauts. [Both of those links are no longer active. The only active link I currently have about the Incas is some silly post about Sky Gods, but I hope to repost more articles from that deleted website of mine, in due time. I will try to combine a lot of the pages about Ancient Aliens / Astronauts to a blog page called Alien Visitors, so that particular page will act as a mini menu for those topics, later on.]

An excerpt from Wikipedia:
"The Nazca Lines are a series of ancient geoglyphs located in the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. They were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. The high, arid plateau stretches more than 80 kilometres (50 mi) between the towns of Nazca and Palpa on the Pampas de Jumana about 400 km south of Lima. Although some local geoglyphs resemble Paracas motifs, scholars believe the Nazca Lines were created by the Nazca culture between 400 and 650 AD. The hundreds of individual figures range in complexity from simple lines to stylized hummingbirds, spiders, monkeys, fish, sharks, orcas, llamas, and lizards. The lines are shallow designs made in the ground by removing the ubiquitous reddish pebbles and uncovering the whitish ground beneath. Hundreds are simple lines or geometric shapes; more than seventy are zoomorphic designs of animals such as birds, fish, llamas, jaguar, monkey, or human figures. Other designs include phytomorphic shapes such as trees and flowers. The largest figures are over 200 metres (660 ft) across. Scholars differ in interpreting the purpose of the designs, but in general they ascribe religious significance to them." Read more, here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazca_Lines

This subject gets even more interesting when you start reading about all the different theories that try to explain the reasons for the formation of these Nazca Lines and who all may have possibly been involved in these creations, and why.

For example:  Jim Woodmann believes that the Nazca Lines could not have been made without some form of manned flight to see the figures properly. [I'd say that is a safe conjecture.] Based on his study of available technology, he suggests that a hot air balloon was the only possible means of flight during that time.  Many people reject that notion, simply due to the lack of proof that such balloons existed during that time.  It seems more like he wanted to dismiss the belief that any aliens could have been involved, but still couldn't deny the fact that it was done from the air.

Swiss author Erich von Däniken suggests the Nazca lines and other complex constructions represent higher technological knowledge from extraterrestrial beings. Von Däniken maintains that the Nazca lines in Peru are runways of an ancient airfield that was used by extraterrestrials mistaken by the natives to be their gods.  Erich von Daniken along with many other ancient astronaut theorists seem to be on a plausible path of rationale, in my opinion.

There are too many theories to list, but if you search the web about it, you'll find some ridiculous ideas and beliefs, as well as some very good possible explanations for this mystery.  There are some people that believe a race of giants made the Nazca Lines, for example.  Who knows...?

Check out some sample images of the Nazca Lines, below:

Well, to finish up with the resource links, I'll post another link to an informative page about this subject, as an image credit for the two Maps of the Nazca Lines, located below:



These maps were provided by the informative website "Crystalinks."  The Lines were allegedly made by removing the iron-oxide coated pebbles which cover the surface of the desert. When the gravel is removed, they contrast with the light color underneath. In this way the lines were drawn as furrows of a lighter color. Off the Pampa, south of the Nazca Lines, archaeologists have now uncovered the lost city of the line-builders, Cahuachi. It was built nearly 2,000 years ago and mysteriously abandoned 500 years later. The Nazca Lines were first spotted when commercial airlines began flying across the Peruvian desert in the 1920's. Passengers reported seeing 'primitive landing strips' on the ground below. Today, people sometimes fly in hot air balloons to view the splendors of the Nazca Lines, their energies awakening something within their souls.

In closure, one thing seems to be for sure: If you can't really notice or make much sense out of the Nazca Lines unless you are looking down while being high in the air, then one can only wonder if they were built from the air by way of, uh, ancient astronauts and/or aliens using spaceships, etc.

Part 2: "Just another ancient mystery...  The Nazca Lines"

I'm sure many of you are tired of hearing about the "ancient alien theorists" and/or the ancient astronaut theory, but still, what is it with these "Nazca Lines?"
The History Channel (among others) has promoted the notion of Earth being visited by extraterrestrials enough; it's nothing new to me (unlike most people) as it is old news for my highly intuitive, remarkably intelligent self, but still... What rock have you been living under lately? Since when did looking up into the skies and to envision other worlds and intelligent beings out there amid the chaos of creation, get to be so boogie-boogey creative and cosmically untold? Oh, I get it... It is now acceptable to believe in life outside of planet Earth via the media, so now it is okay to talk about it in public. Whatever...

The Nazca Lines is just another ancient mystery that many folks can blame on worldly mundane causes or, for some of us, perhaps otherworldly aliens and whatnot. Whatever the case is, just make sure you throw the word "ancient" in there when you're explaining such things, you know, for the authentic effect; ha-ha! Is it, oh, could it be, let's see... Ancient Aliens from another world or planet?

At any less-than-crazy rate, I'm posting a quick YouTube video below, that speaks about the Nazca Lines in Peru:



Side Note: I get so sick and tired of seeing all those stupid comments on YouTube! I'm leaning more and more towards the notion that YouTube should just remove the comment field altogether. More times than not, reading the comments on some of these videos (not necessarily this one; just saying...) only makes you realize how the majority of the people on planet Earth (at least the ones online) are uneducated idiots that are often spoiled, senseless prima donnas that are rebellious and unruly without a cause, in which many of them should have their Internet privileges took away, just for being a complete imbecilic being amid the cyber-based society - but then again, if it wasn't for the flaming fools of stupidity with Internet access, the online marketing campaigns and advertisements couldn't thrive as well as they do now. So, with my apologies, I take those last couple of insulting comments back, as the confused heathens that I just spoke about, are evidently allowed online just to make many of us web-savvy people some damn money; Ha-ha!

To be more germane towards the topic at hand, here is a relevant link for you:

Oh, speaking of aliens and the "Extraterrestrial Hypothesis" per Wikipedia, the "Official White House Position" on this matter states this vague response of utter legislative jargon: "In November 2011, the White House released an official response to two petitions asking the U.S. government to acknowledge formally that aliens have visited Earth and to disclose any intentional withholding of government interactions with extraterrestrial beings. According to the response, "The U.S. government has no evidence that any life exists outside our planet, or that an extraterrestrial presence has contacted or engaged any member of the human race." Also, according to the response, there is "no credible information to suggest that any evidence is being hidden from the public's eye." The response further noted that efforts, like SETI, the Kepler space telescope and the NASA Mars rover, continue looking for signs of life. The response noted "odds are pretty high" that there may be life on other planets but "the odds of us making contact with any of them - especially any intelligent ones - are extremely small, given the distances involved." ...My response to that cute little exchange of words = "ha-ha-ha!"
