World’s 'Largest' Geoglyphs-Graphic Realisation of mankind Found in the Thar Desert, India Massive spiral encompasses 100,000 square meters in the Sahara Desert . These Unprotected Geoglyphs are run over by the running vehicles and soon will be history. #Archaeology
Thar Desert geoglyphs are divided in 3 segments called boha 1, boha 2 boha 3 Boha 3 is a series of meandering lines 30 miles (48 kilometers) in length
Boha's meandering lines runs parallel like a serpent. (Photo: Archaeological Research in Asia)
In this image, you can see a vegetated line with sand and silts, which occurs during the dry season. (Image credit: Carlo Oetheimer and Yohann Oetheimer / <a href="doi.org/10.1016/j.ara.2021.100290">Archaeological Research in Asia</a>)
A boustrophedon refers to a line that doubles back on itself, first going from R2L and then L2R, in an alternating pattern. Some ancient written languages, including ancient Greek and Etruscan (from what is now Italy), were written in this back-and-forth style
The Hindu memorial stones located around the Thar Desert geoglyphs suggest an advanced form of mathematics, design and planimetry related to the glyphs near them. (Carlo Oetheimer and Yohann Oetheimer / Archaeological Research in Asia sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S2352226721000362 )
