In ancient times, the shape of Santorini was circular and that was the reason it was also called Strongili (means circular in Greek).The volcano's eruption destroyed the centre of the island, which sank, creating today's Caldera.
The first eruption of the Volcano (around 1500 BC) would be responsible for the destruction of the Minoan civilisation in Crete.
