You guys are wrong that cathedral event if it mae from stone is a total different thing, thas nothing to do with the syrcus tower or LoA. We dont know what those ruins are but since they have have being over 5000, its clear a possible ancient civilisation even older than the allags,. But guys dont confuse yourselfs those ruins on azysla is a total diferent thing, but is clear not allag.

I disagree. They seem to me to likely be their ancient, pre-future-tech architecture. It'd be nice to keep around, and moving a religious building up there would be better for morale of the scientists than building just another metallic monstrosity for people to worship inside of.

I kinda agree that it could be a monument of their "primitive" days prior to becoming technologically advanced. They had a museum where they displayed their past achievements. I'm pretty sure that they'd atleast preserve some of their historic buildings and display them for tourists (like we modern folks do now).

That or it could be Meracydian in origin and we know that Miqo'te lived there prior to the 5th Astral Era and that it was the Seeker of the Sun that worshipped Azeyma

Do we really though? Not trying to derail the conversation, but I've seen that 'fact' a lot lately, and I just don't know where it came from. I mean, we know they crossed the sea during the Age of Endless Frost, but do we know from which direction? I'd have thought the ice bridge would be more northward, where melting would take longer and the ice would be thicker, not leading between Eorzea and Meracydia, which we know has a tropical or sub-tropical climate what with jungles and rain-forests described in game.

In my previous thread about unused lore-related data files:

It is believed the Miqo'te first came to Eorzea during the Fifth Umbral Era, fleeing their ravaged homeland on the southern continent of Meracydia.

We know that Umbral eras make things crazy and affect climates in many different ways so it would surprise me if these ice bridges extended very far south
