I’ve been traveling around the UK, visiting lots of ancient sites, and I don’t understand how these places end up buried under so much dirt. I know that sometimes thousands of years pass between when something is abandoned and when it’s rediscovered, but how does that much dirt and debris cover things up over time? Can someone explain how this happens?

Why are dinosaur bones buried??? Dirt/ground isn’t stationary; events like flooding, earthquakes and even a constant breeze will move a lot of dirt over the millennia.
When ancient people were alive they would clean the mud/dirt after a flood…once they all died the flood waters would build up year after year
