Penanggungan

Stratovolkan · Indonesia · 1631 m

Gunung Penanggungan, seen here from Tengger caldera to its east, was constructed immediately north of the Arjuno-Welirang massif with its flanks forming the ridge at the left. Lava flows from flank vents give the volcano an irregular profile. Lava flows have descended all flanks of the volcano and pyroclastic flow deposits form an apron around it. · Foto: Photo by Lee Siebert, 1995 (Smithsonian Institution). · Wikimedia Commons

Ringkasan geologi

Gunung Penanggungan, one of Java's most revered mountains, is a small stratovolcano immediately north of the Arjuno-Welirang massif. Numerous ruins of sanctuaries, monuments, and sacred bathing places dating from 977-1511 CE are found on the northern and western flanks. Lava flows from flank vents descend to all sides and pyroclastic-flow deposits form an apron around it. It was mapped as similar in age to Arjuno-Welirang and Semeru volcanoes by van Bemmelen (1937). Considered to be extinct for at least 1000 years, its last eruption may have occurred about 200 CE.
