Do you have a source that Lanka was an older name for Atlantis (ie that it referred to the same specific place)?

So far as I’m aware the only link between the two is that they both refer to mythical island kingdoms that have since been lost. Any and all sources that I’ve seen with regards to connecting the two lean on the same sort of terrible pseudoscience and misunderstandings that underpin most conspiratorial thinking.
