Konya, known in antiquity as Iconium, is considered to be one of the most religiously conservative metropolitan centers in Turkey. It is best known as the final home of Rumi (1207-1273 AD). Mevlana Celaddiin-i Rumi was a 13th century Muslim saint and Anatolian Mystic who is renown for his exquisite poetry and wise sayings, which have been translated into many languages.

Imagine flying high above the sun-drenched plains of southern Peru where the land is a canvas for ancient puzzles or riddles. Carved into the desert floor are massive drawings of, among other things, spiders, hummingbirds and monkeys, which have puzzled explorers for centuries.

What if I said that in 2024, state-of-the-art technology peeled back the sands of time and revealed hundreds more?

Join me as we fly into these Peruvian geoglyphs, try to tease apart what they might have been for, and consider their immense cultural significance. A Eternal Canvas The Nazca Desert, a vast, arid expanse stretching over 170 square miles, has long been synonymous with intrigue. First spotted by modern eyes in the 1920s, the geoglyphs were created by the Nazca people, a pre-Incan culture that flourished between 200 BCE and 600 CE.
