I moved this page to fit with our article naming conventions. Notably, "Kyklades" is probably the preferred Anglicization, but the more common one is "Cyclades". Also, there's no reason to disambiguate the Cyclades -- I don't think there's another place with this name anywhere. -- (WT-en) Evan 07:58, 10 Nov 2003 (PST)

pickpockeing[edit]

The Cyclades are pretty safe, but take care of your valuables since pickpocketing is common in crowded places.

Does this apply to all islands, or only to some specific islands? We've never heard about or experienced anything like this at Santorini -- this made me doubful about whole group of islands (which sounds bit strange to be specifics of that kind of region). --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 13:54, 19 Oct 2005 (EDT)

Atlantis?[edit]

Atlantis: How Plato’s Story Corresponds to Real History, a news story that cites academic papers. The main claim is that Atlantis was the "Cyclades Plateau", inundated by the rising Mediterranean about 9,600 BCE. Today's islands were that region's mountains.
