UTGM: Past Great Civiliziations

Now that we've touched on Cosmology, let's take a look at history. One of the concepts I want to deal with in UTGM is the layers of history: once someone finds a nice spot to build, civilizations will be built on the runs of earlier civilizations. Civilizations will wax and wane, be conquered or simply disappear outright, but people will tend to stay in the same places. In UTGM this is not only due to geography, but to the necessity to scavenge materials from ruins. Quite a few resources are either exhausted or in hard to work states so scavenging has long been a respected and highly technical occupation.

Also, please remember these are still rough notes, so comments and criticisms are very welcome.
