[Joey]

Yeah, I did.

It's how long ago they were put in place that amazes me, though.

YES, they are called telephone lines, or more specifically , Trans-Atlantic-Cable

They are communications cables, not exclusively for internet. Years ago, the SS Great Eastern was used to lay cables, as it was such a large ship that is was big enough to carry the cables.
