Panoramic view of the Jumana Pampa. In the background is one of the Nazca trapezoids. According to some researchers, the trapezoids were ritual places used by the people of Nazca. Other more fanciful studies sustain that the trapezoids were landing strips for alien spacecraft. All the rectangular, trapezoidal or to be exact geometric geoglyphs are from the Nazca era and belong to the last two centuries of the Nazca culture. Nazca, Peru.
