Actually there are people that have looked into landfills that are in the
100-200 years old range and they have found things in an amazing state of
preservation. Some cases there were newspapers in the middle of the stack
that were as fresh as printed in appearance. Yet in another layer old
papers were completely composted. I'd suspect that old technology would
be found the same way, some just oxidized piles and others completly
intact.
