A last criticism sometimes presented against Tischendorf concerns the use of the Greek majuscule codexes, when later textual criticism has often talked much more about the importance of the Greek papyri (even if they are not as widely used as some would claim or desire). The number of papyri available at the time of Tischendorf for textual criticism of the Greek New Testament was exactly zero, until Tischendorf himself brought to light the first New Testament Greek papyrus, a papyrus that had been brought to the St Petersburg library from the East by Uspensky. It was thought by Tischendorf to be at least a late fourth-century fragment (now thought to be seventh century) of 62 verses of 1 Corinthians. Its date— despite its being a papyrus—is later than Codex Sinaiticus (regardless of the date accepted) and would not therefore necessarily displace the mid-fourth-century Sinaiticus,166
