History Ruins

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

Awesome post, as usual!

Why do you not own your own museum yet?

Laziness.

... and poverty. XD

I wonder if Finland had a wandervogel culture at any point, because I feel like those kids would have loved such a place.
