When Krakatoa erupted in 1883 it caused global temperatures to drop by 1.2°C for 5 years and effects in the tides and barosphere were measurable in England.
Thera's eruption is estimated to be 5x more powerful. To think it didn't have a major impact on the Mediterranean cultures seems ridiculous to me. I'm only a layperson though.
