This was actually for a class on creation myths. Initially, I was going to focus solely on the Timaeus, but I decided to broaden my scope to cover the ways Plato broke with Hesiodic and Homeric tradition.
edit: This was our text book for the class. It's a good read. Sproul writes a great introduction, and provides good analysis and background for each myth.
This is it.
I mean, it very well might not have it, especially if, as you say, it doesn't exist to our knowledge. But that book has tons and tons of creation myths I've never seen anywhere else. Whether or not it can help you for this project, you should check it out. It's really cool.
There are several Egyptian/Babylonian/Pre-History creation stories that begin like this. Pretty awesome.
I recommend Primal Myths: Creation Myths Around the World for an excellent survey of hundreds of these stories.
