The membership of this blog is made up of evangelicals involved in academic study of textual criticism. Those with appropriate expertise and theological convictions who wish to be considered for membership should contact Peter Head or Tommy Wasserman. Those applying for membership must indicate that they have read either the OT or the NT in its original language(s), should be actively involved in text-critical research, and should be already contributing to the blog through comments. They should give e-mail details of an academic and a pastoral referee, a summary of their academic and/or ministry involvement, a statement of their doctrinal commitment (which may be by reference to various classic evangelical statements of faith, e.g. 39 Articles, Westminster Confession), and an indication of their area of interest within textual criticism. Non-members who wish to comment are not expected to be evangelical, but they are requested to respect the blog's ethos.

I was just looking at the most recent volume from Oxyrhynchus and see that they released an amulet of Mark 1:1-2 that dates to 3rd/4th century (P.Oxy.LXXVI 5073). If I am seeing this right, then this would be the oldest extant witness to the first two verses of Mark's gospel. I do not understand why amulets do not get more interest in NTTC. As I looked at the image of this one, it omits "Son of God" as does 01, and it drops an article in verse 2, in agreement with Codex Bezae. The fragment also used nomina sacra, and otherwise looks like a regular papyrus manuscript--except that it was not a continuous text manuscript of Mark, but just an amulet, so it is ignored. The oldest witness to the first two verses of the gospel--ignored.
Isn't LXXVII the most recent volume from Oxyrhynchus?
I meant the latest published on their website
