I see. I guess odds were pretty low that a nuclear bomb would lay waste to a rural town.

As an aside, I wonder why they used so many languages if the nuclear winter survivors would have been rural Georgians like the ones who built the monument. I don't imagine a Russian survivor would ever find themself in the American Deep South without functional airplanes and such.

The extra languages are probably to help it act as a sort of rosseta stone to help future archeologists.
