I visited Butrint Archeological Site yesterday in southern Albania and saw that the ancient city is buried by at least 2 or 3 metres of earth, that archeologists are excavating to uncover the site.
What is the mechanism for these ancient cities becoming so buried in a relatively short amount of time?

Plants.
Plants grow through roads, over buildings etc. Soil is the broken down remains of plants that grew in that location.
