What is a ruin? We’re running off of “You know it when you see it” at the moment. Ruins should be non-functioning structures of some age, or their function reduced to tourism and the like.
Generally speaking, specific items from a ruin should go to !historyartifacts@lemmy.world
Illustrations of ruins (or their reconstructions) should go to !historyillustrations@lemmy.world
Photos of ruins back when they were functioning should go to !HistoryPorn@lemmy.world

~~Gondor~~ Gondar calls for aid!
Very beautiful. There is something abour castle ruins that makes me "nostalgic". Maybe I was a castle cook in my previous life.
They're very cozy. The sort of thing one wants to go out onto the walls of and look dramatically-but-serenely over the landscape as the wind blows past your billowing cape.
Indeed!
