Excavation of Akrotiri

Source: Pascal Brackman

The famous excavation of Akrotiri on Santorini. Some associate this with the missing legendary town of Atlantis. A major earthquake in 18-17th century BC destroyed the city.

The legend of Atlantis was written down by Plato in 375 BC. He mentioned that Atlantis had a ring of water and a beach of red stones: two elements which fit with Santorini.

This is definitely one of the top 10 excavations you should see in Greece.
