BREAKING NEWS!
After having dug to a depth of 10 metres last year, British scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 100 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago.
Not to be outdone by the Poms, in the weeks that followed, Australian scientists dug to a depth of 20 metres, and shortly after, headlines in the Aussie newspapers read: Australian archaeologists have found traces of 150-year-old copper wire and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 50 years earlier than the Brits.
One week later, Maori TV reported the following: After digging as deep as 30 metres in his backyard in Te Kuiti, Hone Waiata, a King Country kaumatua, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Hone has therefore concluded that 300 years ago Maori had already gone wireless.
