The Lines Today

Today the lines are used to try to find pre-Nazca settlements. Markus Reindel continues to research the Nazca lines and has created a 3-D digital model of the valley. Archaeologists today are using computers to map the images of the lines made by Nazca to better study them. The Nazca lines are an interesting and valuable part of the Nazca culture which will survive (hopefully) for many generations to ponder as to how and why they came into being. Perhaps someday archaeology will be able to find an answer as to their purpose, but until then, it's up for debate.
