Very interesting excavation site. Reccomend getting a guide to tell you the story of this amazing ancient civilization.
The excavations at Akrotiri have uncovered one of the most important prehistoric settlements of the Aegean. The settlement was destroyed in the Theran eruption about 1627 BC and buried in volcanic ash, which preserved the remains of fine frescoes and many objects and artworks.
