I wonder if a Metallurgist could replicate Orichalcum now that they know what it is made of?

I never knew it was a legitimate metal from the fabled Atlantis so Clay actually taught me something new today. |

Technically it was much more widely used in the past than the OP article admits. Just a copper derivative. It was forged by the Greeks and others. The Atlantian tale from Plato supposedly occurred around 9,600 BC though, when most of the actual use of the alloy was during the Bronze age ~2,000 BC. Plato's description was likely a bit dated and subject to the effect of oral communication over time.
