Dig a little deeper

After having dug to a depth of 1,000 meters last year, French scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1,000 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors had a telephone network all those centuries ago.
Not to be outdone by the French, English scientists dug to a depth of 2,000 meters and shortly after headlines in the U.K. newspapers read: “English archeologists have found traces of 2,000-year-old fiber-optic cable and have concluded that their ancestors had an advanced high-tech digital communications network a thousand years earlier than the French.”
One week later, New Zealand newspapers reported the following: “After digging as deep as 5,000 meters near an ancient Northland Pa, scientists had found absolutely nothing. They, therefore, concluded that 5,000 years ago Maori were already using wireless technology.”
