SANTORINI (Island) KYKLADES
The island complex of Santorini is comprised of the islands of Thera,
the largest, Thirassia,
the smallest and Aspronissi
a small uninhabited island. These three islands are the remnants of the large
prehistoric island called Strongyle due to its round shape and later Kalliste
due to its beauty.
After an immense volcanic eruption around 1450 BC and the submersion
of the central part of Strongyle, the Caldera (basin) was formed, into which the
sea flooded. After centuries, in its centre emerged the volcano islets (Kamenes),
Palaia Kameni first and Nea
Kameni after centuries.
