The word you are looking for is:
a couple of points:
The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well
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.
There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.
the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”

A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.
αλὴθεια / Alithea.
