Ulf,
If Egypt had records about the Atlantean Invasion (or War), and espectially since Plato wrote that the Atlanteans controlled Libya as far east as the border of Egypt, then any meaningful explanation of Atlantis needs some connection to Libya.
In your last post, about Diodorus and his Amazon/Atlantean stories, I noticed an interesting issue.

If the mythical Amazons (i.e. Libya) made war againt the Egyptian god-king Horus, this could supply a crucial linkage.

Diodorus seems to be implying that the Egyptian god-king Set (who attacked Horus the Elder and poked out one eye of Horus) corresponds to Diodorus's Amazons.

Modern Berbers may be the cultural descendents of both the Amazons and Set.
