a massive explosion of Krakatoa, which opened the Sunda Strait and separated the islands of Java and
Sumatra in Indonesia, also triggered the end of the last Ice Age by covering glaciers with a layer of soot (fly ash),
precipitating a meltdown by increasing the absorption of sunshine.An ancient fiery explosion that caused a giant tsunami and ravaged lowlands is widely attested in all myths and traditions, such as those concerning Atlantis and Paradise. It is universally remembered as the explosion of the Mountain of Paradise (Atlas, Sinai, Zion, Alborj, Qaf, Golgotha, Meru) and of the deluge it caused, of which native peoples all speak obsessively as the Universal Flood and the Universal Conflagration. The glaciers' meltwaters flowed into the oceans, raising sea-levels and causing tremendous strains and stresses in the crust of the earth, which cracked in the weak spots, engendering further volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. The result was the dramatic end of the Ice Age and the so-called Quaternary Extinctions. |
