Dreadlock or locks can be seen on Ancient gaulish coins, and Diodorus Siculus wrote section

5.28. The Gauls are tall, with rippling muscles, and white of skin, and their hair is blond, and not only naturally so, but they also make it their practice by artificial means to increase the distinguishing colour which nature has given it. For they are always washing their hair in lime-water, and they pull it back from the forehead to the top of the head and back to the nape of the neck, with the result that their appearance is like that of Satyrs and Pans, since the treatment of their hair makes it so heavy and coarse that it differs in no respect from the mane. So they pulled long locks hardened, back using a lime substance & Shaved the back of the Neck.

The Nazca lines are c. 200 bce–600 ce years old so The La Téne symbols made by the Nazca people would be after The Celts migration. Ancient Gaulish coins that show Dreadlocks as described.
