Huge Cat Geoglyph Uncovered at Nazca

The geoglyph was about to disappear due to its placement on a steep slope. Between 80-100 new glyphs have been found  in recent years, all pre-dating the Nazca culture. The cat geoglyph was created by the Paracas culture (500 BCE-200 CE). Paracas textiles show birds, cats and people that look like the new geoglyph.
