That tour guide was awesome! But our favorite tour guide is always you 😉
You would think that people would learn to quit building in a flood plain. 😂
The bottles weren’t typically to hide drinking. Based on various anthropology classes as well as analysis videos of various dig sites by the Welch Viking, it seems like it was pretty common in many parts of the world to treat the holes for bathroom purposes as general trash deposits. I know Jimmy mentioned that over there, there were actually people that dug everything out of the pits and hauled it away since there wasn’t exactly room to move them around. But one of my professors did some digging here locally for construction purposes, and there was almost always bottles that would turn up in old outhouse pits. Most of the time they were broken. And if you think about it, when you have a low trash society like it was back then in terms of what gets thrown out, many things would have been burned, metal may have been melted down and something new made, but if the type of metal didn’t allow that, or if you broke a bottle that isn’t going to burn, and you can’t turn it into something else, the safest place for it to be is somewhere it won’t cut someone. For them that was the latrine. At least here they didn’t exactly have trash pick up. It was dig a hole and bury stuff. Stuff like bones from animals will eventually break down, paper, wood, ect was likely burned in the fire for heat, clothes would often get recut or turned into quilts, so you are basically looking at things that don’t break down. Glass, possibly ceramics, and possibly some metals that haven’t had the right conditions to completely rust away…..
I wanna see all the new underground areas.
