Posted by c tito young on 19 February 2021 in English. Last updated on 9 March 2021.Geoglyph of the God of Death, named Supay with an elaborate headpiece with horns. Over 60m wide x 250m long (counting the suggested drawing of his body/robe) he is wearing a pointed beard. He is faces forward with his whole torso tilted slightly oriented north to south. The shape of his head appears triangular with his body hunched below the neckline, wearing a high collar, wrapped in a textured robe holding a smaller animal in his right hand, and carrying a burning skull on a stick on his left hand.
It is unknown the purpose of the geoglyph or that it has some other meanings.
