AI finds new Nazca lines

News article



Even if you rationalize the tentacles on it's head away "oh those are just feathers it's a native wearing a head-dress"

Why the F does it have 3 eyes?

Nobody around here has 3 eyes!

a reply to: peskyhumans Seriously, I see it as two eyes and a nose. Head slightly tilted, one eye thus appears smaller

Cute.. that is some old-school 500 BC and 500 AD graffiti.

Here is the study

I hope they use similar technic for the James web to look for tech civilizations.

Looks like the AI found some "Tire Tracks"...

Why do some spiders have 8 or more eyes? It works.

Maybe it's actually a picture of a prehistoric radio set with three antennae and those are just knobs. You know, old analog type.

Then some graffiti artist added the body later.

That's a real Radiohead.
I'll see my way out.

This is what the AI actually found.


But, it still looks like tire tracks to me.


ETA, ah, I see it now... The tire tracks are going through it...

I freaking love The Nazca.

They are lesser known, but basically, their entire existence was shaped by the really arid desert climate.

Concensus says Von Daniken is a retard, but beyond that, the general opinion on the purpose of the lines is that they were part of a cultural superstition surrounding rain. To show off to the gods above and make it rain or repeatedly walk the lines as a religious procession and make it rain.

That's maybe a stylized version of a sky god, but more likely, the character in the OP is related to their love of new life growing from the head.

The head jar is a ceramic vessel with a human head painted on it, along with trees and plants sprouting from the head which is known as the Sprouting Head motif

It seems unlikely they would deviate very much from that spiritual/cultural theme.

They also took a lot of Mescaline (San Pedro Cactus) and cut off a lot of heads. AN INSANE AMOUNT OF DECAPITATION. The longer the wait for rain, the more heads they cut off, and more lines they made. Severed head = new life.

All in the hope the sky gods would make it rain. Such is life living in the driest deserts on earth.

The Club it's holding say's "Stay Away"

I actually don't live far from the Nazca lines, and I say that's pretty neat.

guess more symbols have to be added to my little calendar jewelry bracelet I have.

I've always felt the lines seemed more like spiritual labyrinths. Each one is a single path. The people would walk the paths, and each drawing was a different emotional/spiritual path.

For example: If you are sad, and cannot shake it: you walk the path of the monkey and focus on what is troubling you. Three laps should do it!

With a few of the raw images, I was able to use Photoshop edge detection and threshold filters to reveal a few. All "AI" would be doing is probably the same and then some automated pattern recognition. Not really AI/

3 eyes could be normal to alien species
