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]

Probably. That kind of recycling/scavenging of building materials is very common practice before the modern day.
In the modern era the pieces are hauled away as souvenirs. We’re very advanced nowadays!
