They certainly did for centuries. But a lot of those who were writing at the time destroyed writings of others, and most of the early writings have not even been translated yet.
But this all takes away from the need to focus on God and seek Him. It's like so many judge things by what others say. Like one preacher I know who did not even believe God could speak to him now and it was all because he saw how many claimed that and were nutcases.
There's too many variables to caught up in extrabiblical evidence. In the end, the word stands alone. That's good enough for me.
