After having dug to a depth of 1000 meters last year, Scottish scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 1000 years ago.
Not to be outdone by the Scots, in the weeks that followed, Australian scientist dug to a depth of 2000 meters and shortly after headlines in the Australian newspapers read: "Australian archaeologists have found traces of 2000 year copper wire and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network a thousand years earlier than the Scots."
One week later, New Zealand newspapers reported the following: "After digging as deep as 5000 meters in West Auckland New Zealand, scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have therefore concluded that 5000 years ago New Zealand inhabitants were already using wireless technology."
