(original Spanish: A pesar de la variedad de recursos vegetales que conoció la población de la cultura Nasca y del uso que le dio en el curanderismo, alimentación, actividades rituales y de otros tipos, en su cerámica plasmaron principalmente representaciones de frutos y raíces tuberosas comestibles).

The ceramics of this showcase partly had no indications. And therefore sometimes it's not sure which animal is painted on the ceramic vessel.

Translation:

<There are many animals painted in these Nazca ceramics which is an indication for a strong relation of Nazca population to nature. Nature seems having been very important in daily life, with different bird classes, fishes, shrimps, mammals, reptiles, dinosaurs, batrachians and spiders.>

(original Spanish:
La representación de animales en la cerámica también evidencia la estrecha relación del nasquense con la naturaleza, así como la importancia en los diferentes aspectos de su vida cotidiana de diversas especies de aves, peces, crustáceos, mamíferos, reptiles, saurios, batracios y arácnidos).
