Plato became a famed philosopher.[1]

He was the first (for modern knowledge) to describe Atlantis, "the Island of Atlas".[2] and his writings were the primary source via which humanity learned of its glory.[3]

Plato mentioned the work of Empedocles in his own.[4]

The Eternal Makkari was tutored by Plato,[1] who was his philosophy professor. He kept a terracotta statute that Plato gave him for thousands of years.[5]

Death and Legacy[]

Plato died in 348 BC.[1]

His followers developed in their philosophy the concept of macrocosm and microcosm, which is an example in western culture of the theory of interconnectedness.[6]

The Mad Thinker created an android based on Plato programed with all of Plato's writings, as part of a project where the Thinker created androids based on many great thinkers, hoping they would make new applications of their philosophies for our time.[7]
