When looking at Alduin's Wall, have you ever noticed the Blades armor the Dovahkiin is wearing when fighting Alduin? The armor type originated from the Tsaesci Potentates who helped rule Cyrodiil during the beginning of the second Era. The Katana's found throughout Tamriel are also from the continent of Akavir.
If your wondering why I am constantly bringing Akavir up in my posts is because Akavir is the land of the dragons. The dragons of Tamriel are since long gone and have not been sighted for thousands of years and disappeared long before the first Era. Did they vanish in thin air, or did they simply move somewhere else? There are endless of theories about why the dragons have returned and where they came from and there is no evidence about them being from Akavir. In The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, M'Aiq the Liar claims that there are lots of dragons in Tamriel.

"Dragons? Oh, they're everywhere! You must fly very high to see most of them, though. The ones nearer the ground are very hard to see, being invisible."

But lets return to the wall of Alduin. It is said that the wall is ancient, but the Akaviri styled armor was not used before the end of the First Era. Does the armor have more to it then just a great sense of style? There are not many remnants left of anything that is from Akavir. The Blades headquarters Cloud Temple in the Jerall Mountains is the most characteristic structure made by the Tsaesci in Cyrodiil.
It was made after the Battle of Pale Pass by the prisoners of war in the beginning of the Second Era. Perhaps the Tsaesci left more structures like this in Skyrim, which possibly could be found in present time. It would be great to fend off a dragon from a settlement like this. As mentioned, it is the headquarters of the Blades and was still being used during the Oblivion Crisis 3E 433. It is uncertain if it is used during the events of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, since the Empire collapsed somewhere around the first years of the Fourth Era. Logically it would not affect Cyrodiil and Cloud Ruler Temple is probably still in use. But the condition of the Blades is unknown.
