Reiche, Maria (1903-1998) - the most famous Nazca-Reseacher. She was German mathematician and astronomer, devoting her life to resaech the mystery of the Nazca desert. She had left the exact layouts of the drawings and the lines plans for the future generation. "When I do die, I want to be buried in this fascinating place, which I love so much," she said. She dead at 95. Maria Reiche are called "the Lady of the Lines" during her life and "Guardian Angel" of Peru's Nazca Lines after her death.
