The Nazca religion is closely linked to there gods because there gods controlled water and rainfall, which is a very important thing due to the hot and dry climate. They had four main gods they were: killer whale (god of the sea), condor (god of the sky), feline (god of the earth) and finally another god who doesn't have a name but is thought to be the biggest of the gods. This god is on a lot of the Nazca pottery, and is shown as a human wearing a cape, with a staff in one hand, and a trophy head in the other. There religion was very spiritual and this is why people think Cahuachi was built, to be a spiritual centre.
