The Nazca Line people from Peru make these gourd rattles or maracas. The Peruvian Nazca Lines is a magnificent region blessed with magic and mysteries. Local artisans handcarve and paint natural local gourds with traditional local glyphs, drawings and desert symbols. Uses include medicinal music, sound journeys, energy cleansing, relaxation, meditation, shamanic practices, and transition rites, journeying and soul retrieval.
