Another one from the history of libraries: two sutra stores, i.e. storage structures for housing Buddhist sutras, in Nara, Japan, built around 800 CE. Again, the structures are lifted off the ground to protect the contents from dampness, elevated on wooden pillars which sit on a stone plate. The exterior walls are made of light logs which shrink in the summer to allow air flow between them and expand in the winter to seal against each other and keep out water. When a construction system has held together and worked for 1,200 years, I’d call it a success.

Now that I finally have that out of the way, perhaps I can move on to something actually on my list. (Or maybe not...) If anyone can clarify some of the "General information" books for me so I can find more specific categories in which to place them, that would be nice; several were placed there merely for lack of better knowledge on their subject matter, or for lack of similar material. Further sources on Irish-American education or Irish-Americans in Louisiana would allow for more categories to be created. Please let me know if you have any!

Book Lists Revisited
The following are some of the topics I would like to post lists for, in no particular order:
Cleopatra and the end of Ptolemaic Egypt
medieval France
the Powhatan people and Jamestown
the Victorian Era
Muslim Spain
Roman Britain
10th century Baghdad
the Meiji Restoration
the American Civil Rights Movement
early Renaissance art in Italy
museums, festivals and monuments
Also, because I have suddenly been inundated with sources for Irish-Americans, I will be posting that next. I am interested not only in books, but in articles and documentary films that may relate to a given topic. If you have anything to offer, please let me know!

Hi, I was wondering if you could recommend any books exploring the legacies of colonialism written by a Pinoy?
To be honest I haven’t come across many books talking about colonialism in the Philippines that is written by a Filipin@ and not someone who is a white American.
There most likely are several but I haven’t heard of them. The only books I can think of at the top of my head is Brown Skin, White Minds: Filipino -/ American Postcolonial Psychology by E.J.R. David which has some chapters dedicated to talking about the Spanish and American colonization and colonial mentality in general, and The Forbidden Book: The Philippine-American War in Political Cartoons by Abe Ignacio, Enrique de la Cruz, Jorge Emmanuel.
If anyone else knows any good books to recommend feel free to comment.
Actually if anyone knows any good books in general about Filipin@ culture, history, & colonization, feel free to message me some suggestions. I plan to make a post as a reference with a list of books that fellow Filipin@’s in the diaspora can read up on as I know many are eager to read books written by and for Filipin@’s on those types of topics, not only as a source of decolonization but also on learning about ourselves as a people.
