Who created the nazca plaines?

Mrs. Obama rules!

It is not a "mystery" and the "indians" did not create the Nazca Lines. After years and years (more than 50) of research, Dra. Maria Reiche (german) together with a team of peruvian archaeologist, concluded that the Nazca Lines (drawn on the pampas de San Juan) were drawn by the people from the Nazca Culture (pre-Inca Culture). It is an astrological calendar made up of many different pictures like the hummingbird, the spider, the monkey, etc. Some ignorant people say the extraterrestials drew the lines..... no, it were the men from the Nazca Culture.

The Nazca Desert was created 7 million years ago, when tectonic movement of the Nazca and South America plates lifted up the Andes to a point where the flow of moist air was disrupted and that region of coastal Peru became arid.

The Nazca Lines, located in the Nazca Desert were dug into the Earth by a preColumbian culture known as Nazca.

They were made by the Nazca Culture.
A recent research placed a theory that their purpose was to give names to the subterranean water streams.
That was essential for these people that lived in the desert.
These theory is quite new and I saw it in National Geographic Channel.

God created the landscape

The Nazca created the figures that can be seen from the air. They made the visible lines by clearing back the stones and boulders.

Nazca is Nazca. I just used the word "Indian" for lack of a better word and we all know that "Indian" isn't Native American anyway. The Native Americans came to the Americas following large game across the Bering Strait some 13-15k years ago just near the end of the last ice age. There were other migrations, but 90% of the indigenous people of South and Central America and 50% of the indigenous people of North America (including the Inuit) are descended from the Asiatic-Caucasoids who migrated across the Bering Strait from what is now Russia into what is now North America.
Geneologists have traced a gene with a slight mutation through the male line going back some 20 thousand years. This geneological line was traced to an acient race that once lived in what is modern day Kazakhstan in southern Russia where the ancestors lived 20 thousand years ago.

The oceans rose dramatically during the first 1500 years after the last ice age and covered the land linking North America to Russia and separating the two great land masses. Geologists and archaeologists have discovered that there was a green corridor running down through western North America with lush green forrest. The new arrivals eventually followed this corridor down south into the central and south Americas. The first American step pyramids were constructed in Peru at Caral about 4700 years ago. Caral was a center of trade and a cotton kingdom in the Americas trading cotton goods with tribes from hundreds of miles away.
