Troy, the city most famously described in the Iliad, which was written 400 years before Plato lived, was destroyed 400 years prior to that, and that (as far as I can tell) Plato has zero connection to and most certainly did not explain the location of.

So I did not expect the vehement responses here, but as another commenter pointed out, this topic was apparently covered on the Joe Rogan Experience and disagrees with what I have posted here.

While I did post this as a "fact", it is evidently disputed, and so in lieu of being able to edit the title, please add "Many Scholars Believe that..." to the beginning of my post when you read it.
