Geoglyph of Two Stacked Heads

Posted by c tito young on 31 March 2021 in English. Last updated on 10 April 2021.

Two geoglyph heads appear to be stacked one on top of the other on moderately sloped land. The bottom head is 25m x 25m and the top head significantly smaller 5m x 5m, oriented north to south. Both heads seem to suggest having bodies but they are hard to read at this time. Both heads look in the forward direction. It is unclear why they were created or what they are doing there.
The bottom head suggests that its body seems to have a bent arm, torso and two legs, though very short and stubby, they do appear there. The upper head, being smaller seems to have a smaller body and is unclear if the head is resting on a hat the of the bottom head. It might be suggested the top head is of a monkey.
