背景
历史与背景
This site in the Highlands is part of Iceland's intensely active volcanic landscape. Iceland sits on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates diverge, making it one of the most volcanically active places on Earth. Historical records of eruptions in Iceland date back to the settlement era, with the 934 AD Eldgjá eruption being one of the largest lava flood eruptions in recorded history. The 1783 Laki eruption caused a devastating famine that killed about one-quarter of Iceland's population. More recently, the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption brought global attention to Iceland's volcanic power. Each volcanic site tells a chapter of this ongoing geological story.
