	New Ice-Core Evidence Challenges the 1620s age for the Santorini (Minoan) Eruption (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
		Composition of this glass does not match the composition of glass from the Santorini eruption, thus severely challenging the 1620s age for the eruption.
		These findings suggest that an eruption not documented in the geological record is responsible for the many climate-proxy signals in the late 1620s.
		Although these findings do not unequivocally discount the 1620s age, we recommend that 1628/1627 no longer be held as the "definitive" age for the Santorini eruption.
