Origins
Lake Toba is estimated that the explosion occurred around 73000-75000 years ago and is bursting supervolcano (super volcanoes) that most new. Bill Rose and Craig Chesner from Michigan Technological University estimate that the materials vulkanik the dimuntahkan mountain of 2800km3, 800km3 with ignimbrit rock and ash 2000km3 estimated vulkanik is blown away to the west for 2 weeks. Vulkanik be blown dust that the wind has spread to half the earth, from china to the south african. Letusannya occurred for 1 week and throw debunya 10 KM above sea level.
This incident caused the death and mass in some species also followed extinction. According to some DNA evidence, this eruption also menyusutkan the number of people to about 60% of the earth when the human population is around 60 million people. The explosion also caused the ice period, although experts still debate the matter.
After the eruption, which then formed Caldera filled by the water and into the now known as Lake Toba. Pressure to the top by Magma, which has not been out resulted Samosir Island.
