A pulse of mid-Pleistocene rift volcanism in Ethiopia at the dawn of modern humans
Past volcanic eruptions along the densely populated Ethiopian Rift valley remain poorly constrained despite the present day hazard. Hutchison et al. show that a large volcanic flare up along a 200 km section of the rift occurred between 320–170 ka dramatically affecting the landscape and hominin pop...
