Hi All,

Our cemetery - the San Diego Chapel Complex (located within the boundary of 
the San Diego Presidio) stratigraphy has a lot of household trash and 
building rubble mixed in with the burial levels.  We know new burials were 
put in, in spaces that contained older burials (i.e. older deposits were 
exhumed for new bodies).
But, does anyone have an explanation why household garbage (including 
butchered bone/food waste, busted glass and ceramic, metal, shell, etc.) and 
building rubble would be thrown away in the cemetery while it was still in 
use?

Thanks in advance,
S. Walter
