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

Edit: OP updated the image, so the below no longer applies.

Original comment:

The image on the right is not the interior of the structure on the left. The right is a photo of an initiation well (also at Sintra).

Fuck. Let me edit it, then.
