"Myths, Mysteries and Mysticism" (1996) Episode 5, titled Pathway to the Gods, directed by Roel Oostra, explores the enigmatic Nazca Lines of southern Peru. Spanning over 5,000 square miles of desert, these massive geoglyphs—depicting animals, geometric shapes, and intricate lines—can only be fully appreciated from the sky, raising profound questions about their purpose and creation. The episode follows author and researcher Tony Morrison as he investigates the origins of these ancient markings, paying tribute to the late Maria Reiche, who dedicated her life to studying and preserving the lines until her death at 95. Through Morrison’s journey, the documentary delves into various theories about the Nazca Lines’ significance—were they astronomical maps, ceremonial pathways, or messages to the gods? Oostra weaves together history, archaeology, and mysticism to unravel the secrets of this awe-inspiring landscape, offering viewers a thought-provoking look at one of humanity’s most enduring mysteries.
