New geological and tectonometamorphic maps of Syros (Cyclades, Greece)
The Cycladic Blueschist Unit (CBU) was exhumed by an overall top-to-the east shearing.
The CBU was exhumed as separate subunits with distinct P–T evolutions.
Exhumation process encompassed syn- to post-orogenic stage.
During exhumation, strain localized downward along major extensional shear zones.
