Background

A back-arc volcanic field with many pyroclastic cones lies in the Department of Huila, near the towns of San Augustín and Isnos, overlies an ignimbrite plain. Disappearance of the San Augustín culture between the 2nd century BCE and the first century CE has been attributed to invading armies or volcanic activity (Borrero et al., 2007).

Stop Russia's Agression - Support Ukraine

Significant parts of this website use brilliant open-source software developed by Ukrainians. Russia's unprovoked war has killed tens of thousands, displaced millions, and the beautiful country of Ukraine is being destroyed. We cannot be silent even if the topic of this website has nothing to do with politics.
If you like to support Ukraine from abroad:
Ukrainians recommend the Come Back Alive charity. For other options, see StandWithUkraine.
