in this spot

Our ruins are open to visit this week – come by for a glimpse and come by for a peek. With houses aplenty both restored and not you'll learn how our ancestors lived in this spot and lived without waste want or much luxury and lived so much simpler than you or than me. In stone water-channels they brought in their drink with others they led away waste-water's stink and erected stout walls to keep foes at bay and erected store rooms for grain and for hay. They had more than one cult and one ritual indeed many of them did not pray at all yet lived out their in peaceful co-living that was one of sharing and kindness and giving. No house was much larger than the one next door and most of them had but a single ground-floor but some of them boasted a bin in the roof for making food storage both rain- and rat-proof. There's tons more to learn here in this our town so stop for a visit if you are around and sample the recipies used way back when – we're sure you will come back again and again.
