When the Greek island of Santorini, classically known as Thera, erupted dramatically in 1613 BC (+/- 13 years), it produced one of the largest explosions ever witnessed, thereby possibly giving rise to the legend of Atlantis. This so-called 'Minoan' eruption triggered tsunamis that devastated coastal settlements in the region, and on Santorini it left behind a Bronze Age Pompeii, which is currently being excavated. Thriving Bronze Age settlements on the island - rich in colorful wall paintings and highly sophisticated pottery - were buried under thick layers of volcanic ash. The ejection of an immense volume of dust into the atmosphere also altered global climate for several years. The author, a well-known geologist, blends the thrill of scientific discovery with a popular presentation of the geology, archeology, history, peoples, and environmental settings of the island group of Santorini. He not only gives a comprehensive overview of the volcanic island and its past, but also reports on the latest discoveries: The finding, for example, of the olive trees which had been buried alive by the Minoan eruption has made it possible now to give a direct and precise radiocarbon date for the volcanic catastrophe. Furthermore, he seeks to assign certain geological structures, such as faulted rocks, red lavas and harbor sites, as depicted on the Bronze Age frescos from Santorini, to still-existing details in the Santorini landscape of today. Excellent color photographs and illustrations along with easily understandable scientific and historic details will make this book highly appealing to a wide audience. It will also be useful as a supplementary text for introductory courses in earth and atmospheric science, geology, volcanology, and paleoclimatology, as well as ancient history and archeology.

In August 1973, a poet contemplating suicide arrives on the Greek Cycladic island of Santorini. To make a decision of such finality requires intellectual acuity. Seeking it, he drinks ouzo and engages in existential conversations with local philosophers and rudderless travelers and in passing becomes involved with several young women. Six days on the volcanic Aegean island thought by some to be the Lost Continent of Atlantis will resolve the matter – or not.

Les 28 communications publiées dans ce volume dressent un certain nombre de constats utiles, non seulement pour esquisser une histoire des idées sur la préhistoire du monde égéen depuis le XIXe siècle, mais aussi pour évaluer la situation actuelle et tracer de futures directions de recherche. Le rôle des époques, des milieux sociaux et intellectuels, ainsi que les enjeux idéologiques et politiques permettent de comprendre, par exemple, l'utilisation des «trésors», la genèse et la fortune des idées d'Evans, l'élaboration des chronologies du Néolithique ou la réception du déchiffrement du linéaire B. Cependant l'on dépasse largement le cadre de la préhistoire égéenne, car quelques notions fondatrices du discours archéologique et historique, comme la culture, l'art ou le statut princier, sont questionnées d'un point de vue théorique et méthodologique.

This textbook offers an up-to-date academic synthesis of the Aegean islands from the earliest Palaeolithic period through to the demise of the Mycenaean civilization in the Late Bronze III period. The book integrates new findings and theoretical approaches whilst, at the same time, allowing readers to contextualize their understanding through engagement with bigger overarching issues and themes, often drawing explicitly on key theoretical concepts and debates. Structured according to chronological periods and with two dedicated chapters on Akrotiri and the debate around the volcanic eruption of Thera, this book is an essential companion for all those interested in the prehistory of the Cyclades and other Aegean islands.
