The Oxyrhynchus Papyri are finally getting decoded. Academics have hailed it as a development which could lead to a 20 per cent increase in the number of great Greek and Roman works in existence. There are 400,000 fragments; so far, translated bits include lost works from Sophocles, Euripides, Lucian and Archilochos

And robin_d_laws has a post wherein he creates RPG adventure hooks from the Papyrus.
