This is a nice and very clear solution.
I like subtags more and more.
It's a kind of Advanced Tagging.

For clarity, could these be subtags of historic?
e.g.
historic=ruins
historic:civilization=roman
historic:period=aurelia

That way we can have more descriptive tags without worrying about conflicts with non-historic meanings.

Perhaps one could have separate tags for civilization and era. After all, many of these civilizations overlapped to some degree, timewise, while being in different parts of the world. In some cases, the different civilizations traded with each other (for example, the Roman and Chinese civilizations traded with each other, through intermediaries).


yes, era is not what I am looking for. I used to tag the time
component (in rare cases) with the key "period", e.g. period=aurelian
for one of the city walls of Rome:
