There have, in fact, been several discoveries in Sinai lately. However,
2492 (a member of family 330) and 2495 (part of family 2138, and a
rather corrupt near-sister of 1505) were discovered more than thirty
years ago; they are listed in the first edition of the _Liste_.

Few of the more recent discoveries at Sinai have been assessed yet;
the only major items to make it into NA27 are 0278, 0281, and 0285.
The minuscules, for the most part, haven't even been assessed yet.
(See the notes in Aland & Aland, acknowledging their existence but
not rating them. I don't think they're in _Text und Textwert_.)
