Cemetery of Chauchilla
Just 25 km southwards of Nasca you can find the cemetery of Chauchilla, a grave field of the Nasca culture. Grave robbers already have done their work. Archaeologists found mummies which very half-mummified, some with long hair and finger nails, which look in a crouched position in the direction of sunrise. Scientists guess that the different size of the graves gives information about the position of the certain family.
