The ancient Nazca people were based in the Ceremonial City of Cahuachi, an ancient pilgrimage center 28 km southwest of modern Nazca. The society emerged in around 100 BC and was active untill around AD 750.
The Shamans, a priest like figure, were very much celebrated in those ancient times and would have been left to rest with most of their expensive, worldly possessions. He had long hair and lavish clothing (what’s left of it), which signified his status in society at the time.
