I am pretty sure I am digging in an old landfill. I found an 1880s beer bottle about 4 inches below the surface. On the surface it is filled with bottles from the 1940s-1950s. On the top I occasionally find an 1880s medicine bottle too.
I am not exactly certain this is a landfill. How can I identify this as being an old landfill? When I dig, it just seems like endless dirt, with the occasional piece of glass. Could there possibly be another layer underneath the one on the top, if so, how far underneath the surface?
