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

It's Tse yaa Kin ("house under the rock"), known as Mummy Cave, in Canyon del Muerto. The most recent ruins are ~700 years old; the oldest archeological traces could be ~1700 years old.
