Archaeology - Georgia Style


Archaeologist digging in New Your found, at a depth of 10 feet, 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 New Yorkers, a California archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story in the LA Times read: "California archaeologists, finding traces of 200 year old copper wires, have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network a hundred years earlier than the discovery in New Yorker".

A week later, The Atlanta Journal, the major newspaper in Atlanta, GA, reported the following: “After digging as deep as 30 feet in his pasture near Winder, GA, Bubba Ledbetter, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing.

Bubba has therefore concluded that 300 years ago GA had already gone wireless.

Just makes you proud to be from Georgia!
