Story of the World — Chapter Twenty-Six
~~~~~~~ West to the Americas! ~~~~~~~~~
FINALLY…! We have made it out of Greece and across the Atlantic to a completely different people group. One that I have never heard of in all my born days, if you want to know. A people found in Peru that were called the ‘Nazcas’.Apparently the Nazcas drew pictures… but the interesting thing about these pictures is that they were miles long. You can’t see the pictures, except from an aerial view. Here are some of the pictures/symbols that they carved into the land, apparently for their gods:
If it weren’t below freezing, we could go outside and try to make a huge picture, perhaps using the whole beach out at Tunnel Park. There’s a big lookout over it, and that would be the perfect place to try something like this. Maybe we’ll do that this spring, and I’ll add the pictures later. But right now? We’re covered in snow, and we’re just adding this picture to our Book of Centuries, for documentation purposes.
On the other hand, as I was typing this, I stumbled upon an article (LINK) about snow pictures. Take a look at this!
So maybe we should get out there and do something, after all?
