DRAWING OF MONKEY IN  NАSКА DESRT

Signs with their harmonious and correct curves  are reproduced in the huge  sizes so as if they are parts of the big circle with the set radius and the centre, which exact location  has been carefully calculated.

The well-known figure of nine paw monkey, geoglyph in desert Naska, is a riddle for  science and a masterpiece of ancient art. Drawing to create which is difficult enough, represents difficultly solvable puzzle. 

Simple and elegant geometrical decisions, are imperceptible at first sight, simply because drawing consists of two components combined in the general design, and it is perceived, as a single whole. The first part is  a pentagram precisely given with  drawing lines, the second is squares in which all image is entered. A square influences to all structure of drawing, and its party precisely are orientated on parts of the world. 

 The first who  paid attention to geometrical laws in drawing of a monkey was Maria Rajhe, the scientist and angel the keeper of Naska geogives  Naski. She  learnt about the huge  figure in desert from pilots in 1952, in some years after the arrival to Naska. The monkey became one of her  most favourite figures to  which she  attached special significance:

“The  monkey and figures surrounding it will be the subject of special research, as a single whole. This drawing consists no more than of two elements. One of them is the wide line, in the length almost about mile which being gradually narrowed leads to labyrinth of lines on the brink of Pampas. Another one is  zigzag lines bending around a contour of drawing ». – Maria Rajhe said.

From the  first sight it is clear that the geoglyph is  not a simple scribble, and accurate comprehended an  image bearing the certain information.
In drawing of the  monkey two long lines form the H-shaped form. An axis of symmetry, tracing  through the point of intersection Х, co-operates with other elements of figure and  passes precisely between feet of the monkey. All these circumstances say about reasonable orientation of drawing.

The angle  between lines, with the big accuracy makes 36 °, i.e. 1/10 of circles. Thus, if to multiply drawing of the monkey relatively  the point Х, a  remarkable round dance from 10 monkeys holding each other for the belt will turn out. In this round dance the centre of the spiral of a tail of the previous monkey coincides with the centre of a head of the following monkey, as if  forming around, certain radio field.

Effect  is simply amazing.

 As far as  36 ° it is an internal ange at pentagram top, it is possible to execute following the constructions.  

Almost parallel sixteen lines forming a zigzag pattern to the right of drawing of the monkey are stopped with  other line at the angle 60 °. This circumstance allows to construct equipotential triangles which excellently interact  with the central pentagram of the monkey.

One more proof of that the angle  between lines is equal to 36 ° and is connected with drawing, following construction from 5 monkeys, in which the centre of symmetry is the centre of a circle describing a pentagram can serve.  And in this case  round dance has repeated. Hands, feet and heads, all has intertwined together. Each of monkeys with nits hands compresses a head of the neigbour one with  one foot compresses  a head of   opposite monkey  and with other foot holds for the  tail one more monkey. This composition causes the double sensations. If to assume that drawing symbolises 5 races of mankind what are they doind? Are they  going to remove each other necks, or  embrace stillshowing the unity?

If from a dark blue five-pointed star in the drawing centre to construct a yellow circle, as is shown in the image  lower, and inside of  it one more pentagram it will appear that  this composition perfectly interacts  with separate parts of a body of a monkey.

This  is one more experimental construction, orientated  along the  axis  south-north. 

All drawing of the  monkey is entered in  rectangle formed with  24 squares and orientated on the  parts of the world. Parts of the monkeys body are intelligently located concerning the sides and angles of square and the centre of symmetry of all composition  is located on a backbone.

Here are  some more “square” constructions.

he laws which were found  in the image of the monkey, cannot be casual and once again say that geoglyves of  Naska it not a chaotic heap of figures and lines  but  the drawing bearing a certain information sense.
