Ancient history

These photos are from last year. The rocks are part of an ancient geoglyph. A geoglyph is a drawing made on the land with stones or other natural materials. They often are so large they can only be viewed from the air. No one knows what this one indicated. It is simply a straight line over slightly rolling terrain and is about 1/4 mile in length. The largest known in the world is in Australia, is a figure of a man and is over 2 1/2 miles in length - pretty amazing.
