Piles of useless remains of chem batteries, tires and bones from past markets remain. Animals often pick at the site after people leave. When active all kinds of tribes and creatures meet to swap scrap pulled from the rubble and other sometimes better things. Most traders specialise and swap with other traders and prospectors.
