After having dug to a depth of 10 meters last year, Italian archaeologists 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 Italians, in the weeks that followed, Turkish archaeologists dug to a depth of 20 meters. Shortly thereafter, headlines in Turkish newspapers read: “Turkish Scientists have found traces of 200-year old copper wire, and have concluded that Turks already had an
advanced high-tech communications network one hundred years before than the Italians !
One week later, “The Kathimerini”, a Greek newspaper, reported the following: “After digging as deep as 30-meters in fields near Athens, Sakis Petropoulos, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing.
Sakis has therefore concluded that 300-years ago, Greeks were already using wireless networks.
