This, is another combined, greek word that was made up by a non-Greek. It was the philosopher and humanist Thomas More this time, and he used it to entitle his book, in 1516, about an ideal imaginary island. From the ancient Greek 'ου'  meaning 'not' and 'τόπος' (topos) meaning 'place'. A place that doesn't exist. ΟΥΤΟΠΙΑ/UTOPIA
