Strange Phenomenon in the Australian Outback
It is probably the largest work of art, with a perimeter of more than 17 miles. People of Marree, deep in the Australian outback are not sure how it got there. A giant outline of an Aboriginal man poised to throw a stick has appeared apparently ploughed into the desert crust, near Lake Eyre. The figure two and a half miles long was spotted by Trek Smith a freelance pilot. An anonymous fax describing the giant reached local businesses. No one has claimed responsibility for the classic Aboriginal pose of a man carved into the dust near Finniss Springs in the north of South Australia state.
Its outline is 30 yards across in places had been professionally pegged put and appeared to have been ploughed by farm machinery. There are no tyre marks to suggest the use of a tractor or a heavy loader and although this is an area where people know each others business for hundreds of miles around, nobody admits to hearing or seeing anything out of the ordinary. Even the fax shed no light on the puzzle. It simply gave directions to the carving and claimed it was "the world's largest work of art". It is said to be five times the size of largest human drawings at Nazca in Peru. Marree is 370 miles north of Adelaide and boasts a population of just 60 people.
