The intaglio, a large-scale earthwork depicting a serpent, is etched into the landscape, leaving a lasting mark on the plains of Kansas. The serpent's intricate design, measuring over 1,000 feet in length, showcases the artistic and engineering prowess of the ancient Native American cultures that once inhabited the region. With its precise lines and carefully shaped curves, the Serpent Intaglio is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of the area, providing a glimpse into the lives and beliefs of those who came before us.
