Yes, healthy fragments were found in Greek at Oxyrhynchus (Hunt & Davies)
before they'd ever made the connection with GThom. and those fragments were
dated very early, but with the Nag Hammadi discovery the Oxyrhynchus
fragments suddenly got redated.

Nothing really to suggest any earlier language though.
