Nasca Lines: The Buried Secrets (2010 TV Movie) User Reviews

Controversial issue in the desert!!!

[elo-equipamentos · 7/10 · 24 February 2019]

The Nasca lines is about to reachs in a new direction, no one ancient aliens were involved with those wide marked area, according some archeologists such place were totally different in the past, endless fields of the grasses surrounded those fertile lands, the desertification process was in charge but slow, so those lines were made by the previous Nasca's people, those ancient native used to make the lines for religious purposes only, there are some underground water channels made by them with several stone's spiral staircase to reach below to take the fresh water, many tribes struggleed by the water, also they had some kind of self sacrifice to the Gods, well certainly is another theory against the ancient aliens airport theory....l don't think so!!!

Resume:

First watch: 2019 / How many: 1 / Source: Cable TV / Rating: 7.5

An useless documentary

A Story about water and surviving, there's no story about the lines, shapes, landing site. Bad

On Netflix as 'The Truth Behind: The Nasca Lines.' Worthwhile viewing.

I came across a program on Netflix streaming called "The Truth Behind: The Nasca Lines", the release date and running time match so it is the same program. Not sure why it has two different names.

Anyway I have always been curious about the world around us, and particularly about things from the past that we don't fully understand.

In southern Peru in an otherwise dry and deserted area, are giant lines. Some of them are very straight for miles and miles as if they were ancient runways. Others form large, intricate figures only discernible from the air, like drawings of giant monkeys and other creatures.

One theory that had gotten a lot of traction over the years is the former visits by aliens that had created the figures and had used the runways for landings.

This program explores the habits of the ancient Nasca tribes and tries, successfully, to relate their customs to the existence of the lines. Excavations finding buried skeletons without heads plus certain pottery remains with the same figures as the giant Nasca lines lends support to the conclusions.

The study is augmented by modern technology, use of flying drones with high-definition cameras to allow researchers to develop 3D computer models of the terrain and the Nasca lines to study them more thoroughly.

Overall a very nice, worthwhile program.
