In 2003, a pensioner from Southend in England found an old 1.2 meter long object in his garden and immediately called the museum when he thought it was a tusk from an elephant.
The Southend Museum thought it was a 20,000-year-old tusk from a mammoth and had planned to exhibit it, but when they wanted to dig it up carefully, it turned out to be a 19th-century water pipe in white clay instead. Markus
