Gigante de Atacama

Chile

About

Is this the image of an ancient god, a space alien or some guy with a crazy haircut No one knows for sure, but this is the largest anthropomorphic geogliph in the world. Located on lonely Unitas hill in the middle of the Atacama desert, this archeological enigma was thought to be used by an unknown prehistoric culture to perdict the rainy season in the Atacama. The picture shows the bird's eye view of the giant, but dont worry, you can also see it from the ground, along with many other curious glyphs located on other parts of the hill.
