accumulations
Things piling up
Accumulations are things that have gathered or piled up over time.
The word emphasizes gradual increase rather than sudden acquisition: accumulations of dust in the corners, accumulations of wealth over generations.
In technical contexts, accumulations may refer to deposits of snow, sediment, or other materials that build up in layers.
