People haven’t always been that way… but massive, imperialist governments always have.
Just look at the Native American population pre-USA. They learned to coexist with nature and let basically nothing go to waste.

With the limited research I just did on my phone, I didn’t see all this abundant evidence of trash piles.
I did learn about Middens, which were sort of trash piles. But they were mostly filled with shells, animal bones, and excrement, which seems more like a compost heap than a landfill.
Also, they were made predominantly by a few nomadic tribes. There are even other animals that make these “middens” like squirrels and octopi.
If you consider broken pottery and broken combs as garbage, then sure, it’s a landfill. I can also say that the broken pottery is just a pile of dried clay pieces that were put back on the ground.
Bones, rocks, and other organic matter put on the ground hardly makes a place a landfill. Otherwise every cemetery, quarry, or a pile of pretty much anything is considered a landfill.
