Season 14
Episode 1407
Sandwiched between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes are enigmatic remains of pre-Incan cultures, with rock art, effigies etched into the desert and burial sites that lay forgotten under the arid land for centuries. Explore structures that provided access to the labyrinth of underground canals and aqueducts used by the Nazcans for irrigation and burial ground on the shores of a high Andean lake.
