A small group of amateur archaeologists in Philadelphia are digging into the city’s past — by excavating ancient outhouses. Armed with shovels, roughly 15 “privy diggers” are exposing and exploring 300-year-old bathrooms buried beneath the city’s historic neighborhoods, searching for artifacts. Their finds include glass bottles, pottery shards, and household items owners tossed into privies as trash.
