Because Theran ash is sometimes used in the making of concrete, unexpected treasures that don't come from Akrotiri occasionally turn up on Santorini.

Case in point, this amazing impression of olive leaves preserved between layers of volcanic ash.

Thanks for the very interesting information. Do you know in what museum this gold ibex is currently displayed?
