	abstract = {<p>The Cycladic islands are located in the central Aegean Sea (Greece) in a relatively low seismicity area and are composed mainly of metamorphic and plutonic rocks. Although the Cycladic plateau is believed to be an entity, a closer morphologic study of the islands through GIS, separates them into two parts: the eastern shallower one (Andros, Tinos, Mykonos, Naxos, Paros, Syros, Ios, Sikinos, Folegandros) which formed one big island (6.978Km2) at the end of the last glacial period; the western islands (Kea, Kythnos, Serifos, Sifnos, Milos) remained separated during the same period. It is concluded that the eastern islands constitute an erosional plateau which is a product of a Neogene palaeosurface that is partially submerged due to thinning of the crust during the Quaternary.</p>},
