A 150m x 150m geoglyph appears to show a man in the action of throwing a spear. This spear is over his head and he is aiming a target towards the northeast, standing upright. The geoglyph is drawing showing the figures both eyes, nose, single ear and mouth while appearing to be wear layers of clothing. Drawn on moderately sloped land. It is unclear if the warrior, a hunter or simply throwing a spear for sport.

The drawing suggests by the location of where the figure’s spear being beyond and above his throwing hand, that he may be using a Peruvian Atlatl. This clever device, using a grip piece and hook, allows better speed and accuracy in throwing. By the suggested position of the figures body, the thrower is appearing to be at where the forward motion of the spear throw is captured.
