Humuvlium
Humuvlium -("Hue-move-lee-um") are sediments transported by human means as opposed to gravity (colluvium) or by water (alluvium). Humuvlium can occur in any environment where human activity is present or was previously present. For example, a bed of loose boulders and dirt moved from a construction site. If a bed like this were to remain untouched it would eventually be buried as a single bed and lithified as a single bed. This bed and it characteristics could not exist without human exuhmation, transportation and emplacement. A bed like this would be classified as a Humuvlium deposit.

Natural examples
Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, California is named after the abundance of sea glass as a result of long term dumping off the coast. Though the sea glass has been reworked and smoothed out by beach processes the true source of the resulting beach deposit would be classified as humuvlium because of its original introduction to the depositional environment by human processes.
