It’s not a straight line, or designed to represent much of anything....just a standard hole dug out. I guess up to around 5,000 of these holes. The suggestion is that they were small grain storage sites. You would think an excavation or two would have been done on one of the holes to establish past contents....but no one ever talks about that. It does appear to be man-dug though.
Hard to see why aliens so advanced they can travel across the stars would dig holes in the ground, build large stone structures with no apparent purpose, or make crude drawings in the ground that can only be seen from the air. Although it’s also hard to see why stone age humans would want to do it either if they could.
Yeah, it is to collect water. Such that the moisture won’t run off down the side of the mountain. With the water from precipitation collected in the holes the land will gradually become more moist. And vegetation will be able to grow.

I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Pisco, Peru
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall...
Cannibalism
Thousands of huge stone "jars" arrayed over the landscape. Graves, and urns for cremated remains.
There was talk during the "Secret War" of removing one to CIA Headquarters and calling it "The Tomb of the Unknown Case Officer."
Tax collection site. This family fills this pit, that family fills that pit, etc.
Peru has a lot of stuff like this. Perhaps even more impressive are the subterranean water holes of the harsh Nazca desert.

You only really see how impressive with a video made inside the holes.
