What is the word for truth and its meaning in Koine Greek?

as a result Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, was always depicted as a naked, unassuming and plain looking woman. The Latin equivalent was nuda Veritas. Truth has nothing to hide and didn’t need all the adornments of the other gods.
The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden
A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.
a couple of points:
The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well
There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.
I have the power to talk to aliens through using telepathy. Why do people think I'm crazy?
the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”
αλὴθεια / Alithea.
Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.
