Keep in mind that the LAST major eruption of Santorini (aka Thera) caused the extinction of the Minoan civilization, and created a "Mediterranean dark age".

I'm currently in the middle of re-reading Lucifer's Hammer, which includes a couple of references to Thera.
Great book! I read it back to back with Clarke's "Hammer of God" Preferred Niven's better.
