The Power of Volcanos

Volcanic eruptions are very rare compared to the duration of a human life. Only indications of passed catastrophes can give us a clue what could happen in future. An epidemic in Europe, traces of sulphur found in the ice of Greenland and a mysterious lake at the far end of the world - could a volcano tie all these things together?

Today more people than ever live in close proximity to volcanoes. While the giants are sleeping, these metropolises grow in seeming safety. But the chance of a catastrophe looms over them. But at the same time: Didn't volcanoes fuel the evolution of very advanced cultures? A disappeared nation in the middle of Mexico gives us a clue as to why people are so attracted by the giants.
