Headhunters, cannibals, and jungle guarded the location of Sumatra's Lake Toba until 1852 when it was finally seen by a European explorer and drawn on the map. A surprise, for Lake Toba is the biggest caldera lake in the world. When the super-volcano Toba erupted some 74,000 years ago it was with an explosion equivalent to 2,800 times that of the 1980 Mount St Helens eruption in USA. It left the hole now partially filled by a lake sixty miles long and eighteen miles wide. with steep caldera walls.
