Nazca Lines $66.91 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Nazca Lines are a series of ancient geoglyphs located in the Nazca Desert of Peru. They have been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The high, arid plateau stretches more than 80 kilometres (50 mi) between the towns of Nazca and Palpa on the Pampas de Jumana. Although some local geoglyphs resemble Paracas motifs, scholars believe the Nazca Lines were created by the Nazca culture between 200 BCE and 700 CE. The hundreds of individual figures range in complexity from simple lines to stylized hummingbirds, spiders, monkeys, fish, sharks or orcas, llamas, and lizards.

Nazca Culture $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Nasca culture (alternatively spelled Nazca when referring to the geographical region; the term Nasca refers to the archaeological culture (Silverman,1994)) flourished from the first to eighth centuries AD beside the dry southern coast of Peru in the river valleys of the Rio Grande de Nazca drainage and the Ica Valley (Silverman and Proulx, 2002). Having been heavily influenced by the preceding Paracas culture, which was known for extremely complex textiles, the Nasca produced an array of beautiful crafts and technologies such as ceramics, textiles, and geoglyphs (most commonly known as the Nazca lines). They also built an impressive system of underground aqueducts, known as puquios, that still function today. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.

Wugeo, Maps $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles WuGeo is a Python library used to draw points on geographical maps, starting from latitude and longitude. It borns from the desire to track site visitors, then becomes an abstract library, being a scientific generic tool. In particular, WuGeo has to be used with world maps created with the Miller cylindrical projection, that is a modified Mercator projection. The Mercator projection is a cylindrical map projection presented by the Flemish geographer and cartographer Gerardus Mercator, in 1569. It became the standard map projection for nautical purposes because of its ability to represent lines of constant course, known as rhumb lines or loxodromes, as straight segments. While the linear scale is constant in all directions around any point, thus preserving the angles and the shapes of small objects (which makes the projection conformal), the Mercator projection distorts the size and shape of large objects, as the scale increases from the Equator to the poles, where it becomes infinite.
