Do structures get preserved well when covered with sand? Some pyramids and sphinxes were preserved wonderfully, but those were massive stones. I’d assume structures like this wouldn’t break down completely right?
There’s probably entire ancient villages buried in a millennium of sand.

I’d say it’s more the dryness than the sand.
Pompeii got preserved due to ash, so probably. Unless by the time it’s completely covered the sand grinded the outer shell
