Reply to comment by Qwez81 in TIL that the "Lost City of Atlantis" was invented by the philosopher Plato, as a fake enemy for Athens that lost favour of the gods and was sunk in to the sea. by PDRugby
Plato said it was based on a story told to a distant relative of his who has travelled in Egypt.

Not quite. Plato had an obviously lying character in a dialogue say he had records (but not with him, of course)
