How many of you found garbage buried around your place from past owners?

I had a large Cat level a building site and dig a 36" diameter maple tree stump out. Along with the roots came several dozen glass bottles. And they were all in a 3' area.

I think we dug up a really old outhouse pit.

We bought a house built in 1936 and I had to clean up a huge combination burn, scrap pile probably 40 or 50 years in the making. That was in 1992. I still find glass jars, bottles working up to the surface.

I'm sure there is an explanation on why buried glass will work up to the surface 60,70 years later!!!
