Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 藉由變化砂礫排列構成幾何或動物符號,出現在秘魯南方沿海廣袤的沙漠平原上。由納斯卡 (Nazca) 人所創,動機不明。並,請用特定的詞彙「納斯卡線」。常見的英文名為「Nazca」與「Nasca」,指涉相同,但「Nazca」多用以描述該地區,「Nasca」則指涉文化。 
Dutch ..... Geometrische en dierlijke figuren die zijn gemaakt door kiezelzandoppervlakken te herschikken op de uitgestrekte vlakten van de woestijnen aan de kust van Peru. Gemaakt door het Nasca-volk met onbekend doel.
