1969
In a limited area of the Pampa the American astronomer Gerald Hawkins utilizes
measurements with a theodolite with the help of mathematical statistics.
Because of his results he rejects the thesis of the calendar.
Beginning of the ‘80s
Aveni and Urton carry out statistical investigation in the Pampa de Nazca
on a higher level then Hawkins and they come to the end that the astronomy had
played also a roll at the creation of the lines.
1994
The association “Dr. Maria Reiche – Linien und Figuren der Nazca-Kultur in Peru”
is established in Dresden and a little bit later the research project “Nazca” of the
University of Applied Sciences Dresden is found with the target to continue the research
of Maria Reiche and to keep her legacy.
