    Re: observatory

     Hi Carol

     I haven't been there, but I'd sure love to go...

    I looked at the Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazca_Lines) and there doesn't seem to be much evidence that the figures were any kind of observatory..solar or otherwise....

     But who knows what we'll learn in the future...
