We went for a walk down around Hobson’s Bay today and came across a whole bunch of old shards of glass and pottery. I reckon they got dislodged by the construction of the new staircase. People have probably been tossing their junk over that cliff since there have been people in the area.
If you dig through yesterday’s garbage it’s a combination of sad and creepy, but 100-year old garbage is somehow okay. And 1000-year old garbage is archaeology!
