Why do archeological sites always get deeper underground with time? If ground gets on top of them, it must have came from somewhere else. Why no locations seem to rise with time, rather than sink?

This assumes there is a finite amount of dirt, which is a false premise. New dirt is always being created from dust and plant and animal decay. So barring some type of erosion or some type of physical removal, as time goes by, more and more dirt will accumulate everywhere.
