The Timaeus tells us that Solon learned about the history of Athens while he was in Egypt, and that the history and genealogies of Athens are little better than nursery tales. The elderly priest explained how the citizens of Athens were the most valiant in war before the great flood.

The Timaeus was written as a fictional narrative, a sort of XFiles of its day. It contained a wealth of astronomical and scientific information, but was written as a fictional narrative.

The priest of Sais explained to Solon that the aggressor that opposed the mighty nation of Athens came from an island in front of the Pillars of Hercules. This was the name given in antiquity to the pillarlike rocks that stood on either side of the Strait of Gibraltar and marked the entrance to the Atlantic Ocean.
