# Geography, Book 13, chapter 1, section 36

Strabo, 1924. _The Geography of Strabo_.

On the Achaean wall at Troy, which Homer says was newly built, "or else it was not built at all, but fabricated and then abolished by the poet, as Aristotle says". The same comparison is applied to Atlantis at 2.3.6, which is why the remark there is read as Aristotle's.
