Geoglyph of an Abstract Shaped Head
Posted by c tito young on 5 April 2021 in English. Last updated on 18 May 2022.A 20m x 25m geoglyph appears to indicate an abstract shaped head oriented north to south. Both eyes, nose and mouth can be seen within its face. This figure may also indicate a body with two arms splayed open. The figure seems to be part of a larger cluster of geoglyphs.

This seemingly odd looking anthropomorphic figures of a strange human-like head and body that uses the shape of terrain to make out its shape in a 3d fashion. The clever depiction of facial features possibly represent a shaman, spirit or mythical figure.

I have no idea on geoglyph and your diaries are not making sense for large OSM community.
