According to this article,

the famed Oxyrhynchus Papyri are starting to yield up their secrets.
(Well, famed for some; I confess I didn't know about them). It's a huge
treasure-trove of ancient fragments found over a century ago, but most
of them are illegible. Now they're applying some infrared detecting
technology and making out some of the documents for the first time.
Apparently in just four days they've made some momentous discoveries,
and they say that this could expand the amount of great classical Greek
works we have by a full 20%. Well, look at the article; according to
it, this is pretty significant.
