Description
This eruption, which occurred in 1647 BC, caused the middle of the volcano to subside, leaving a caldera of high cliffs - one of the world's most spectacular geographic phenomena.
This is a theory postulated by Plato, one that has fired the imagination of writers, artists and mystics since ancient times ... was the island of Santorini really the lost Atlantis ?
Santorini, 2 million years ago, used to be three tiny islands or rocks, there was no crater or volcano visible at the time. (I will be able to show you these rocks in a little bit). As the volcanic rain which was located near the 3 rocks became active, lava started pouring out of the volcanic vein. Throughout the various eruptions lava filled the gaps and connected the three small rocks into one large circular island. If we look at the map, located at the front of the bus, we can still see the outline of the original shape of the island. All we have to do is connect the different islands. If we connect Oia, the northern tip, to Thirassia, to Aspronisi, to Akrotiri, the Southern tip we can still see the outline of the once circular island.
