摘要: Radiocarbon (carbon-14) data from the Aegean Bronze Age 1700-1400 B.C. show that Santorini (Thera) eruption must have occurred in late 17th century By using carbon-14 dates surrounding region, cultural phases, and Bayesian statistical analysis, we established a chronology for initial Late phases (Late Minoan IA, IB, II).
