Thanks for posting this. The family and I were on a trip from Stevenson, AL to Idlywild, CA and traveled down that highway in ‘91. We saw a roadside historical marker and turned off to view one of these. However, I couldn’t remember exactly what I had read prior, I think it had been in National Geographic, and so I have wondered off and on about the glyphs over the years.

Thanks for filling in detail. I was beginning to think that I had romantized what we viewed that day.

Check this out!

I can’t believe Erik van Daniken didn’t find out about this alien airport.

He wonders whether the suffix -can is a variant of “ka”, part of the word kachina, the Hopi spirits

Didn’t the Egyptians also used the word “Ka” as a name for spirits?

Long and much illusterated article in Desert Magazine, November 1957 starting on page 5 here.

Can't post it, or pictures from it, as it is a "streaming article".

It includes a map and a "motor log" to find the location.

The GE free version has to be less than 2,000’ eye altitude to see them, and know they are a figure rather than a gully or something.

Nazca, it’s not! The whole, big man figure’s fenced enclosure is just barely bigger than my garden area...wider, but shorter. About 110 X 75; figure is much smaller than that.

Not denigrating them, but rather the author who had to over-sensationalize, in a misguided effort to ‘grab the reader and make it interesting’, when it already IS.
