Plato's account of Solon's tale of Atlantis is in his "Timaeus" and
"Critias". A specific reference to the loss of plains and arable land in
Greece is Critias 111.
An interesting point is that the Egyptian priests claim that their
civilization was begun in c. 8500 bc. The first Pharaohs date from c. 2800
but Pharaonic culture seems to be quasi-Mesopotamian in origin, but all the
fuss over an ancient Sphinx and what not might dredge up a distinctly
Egyptian culture that is much older.
