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 [email protected]

Illustrations of ruins (or their reconstructions) should go to [email protected]

Photos of ruins back when they were functioning should go to [email protected]

What a coincidence, I'm actually in the middle of a 6 hour Mycenaean Greek documentary.

Acient human history is fascinating.

Link please. I have one or two set aside to watch and am open to others. Minoan and Mycenaean civilisations have always fascinated me

Pete Kelly is fantastic and spends so much time researching his topics.
