Part of book or chapter of book

This essay, in Spanish and English, is a summary of what we currently know about the geoglyphs of Nasca and Palpa in south Peru based on recent archaeological research. It attempts to answer the questions how the geoglyphs were made, when and by whom, and what function and meaning they had. The essay is published in the catalogue of the Nasca exhibition jointly organised by Museo de Arte, Lima, Museum Rietberg, Zurich, and Bundeskunsthalle, Bonn, in 2017/18.
