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

I recently visited the tombs of Philip II in Vergina, and the photos don't do it justice. The amazing part is you can walk around inside the burial mound and see the excavation sites and discovered artifacts. I tried getting photos, but it's so dark that none of them came out. But the intricate paintings and engravings, especially the gold, is something worth seeing if you can.
I told everyone I didn't learn how to do faces yet!
