INTERDOC_18 — Volcanic Winter, the Bronze Age Collapse, and Civilizational Fragility

The Thera eruption (Santorini, ~1628 BCE or ~1530 BCE — dating remains contested) ejected an estimated 60 km³ of material — four times the volume of Krakatoa (1883). Ice core evidence from Greenland (GISP2) and tree-ring
