Yup. Thera is/was the Island of Thira (which today is also known as
Santorin and belongs to Greece). A volcano destroyed most of Thira at
around 2000 BC (IIRC). I don't know of there's a real connection between
Atlantis and ED (of course, Thira could have been Atlantis, but that
would be pure guessing, as the term "Atlantis" is never mentioned in ED)
