Lake Toba has long been an important tourist destination in North Sumatra, in addition to Bukit Lawang and Nias, attract domestic and foreign tourists.
Legend
Public confidence around saying, there is a legend about the emergence of Toba lake itself. Here's the story. Ancient times, there is a fisherman named TOBA. One day, he was fishing in the river. Fish, fish type Mas. He took the fish home. No taunya, fish, talking to TOBA. He was very surprised. Fish were asked not to eat his TOBA. Changed the fish into a beautiful woman. Toba fell in love with her. They got married. But toba must be eligible when they have children later, TOBA is not acceptable to say that their child is a child fish. Toba meet her. They had a son named Naidoo. Toba switch jobs become "pangula" or farmer. Naidoo grew into a naughty child. One day, Naidoo told to eat his mother drove to his father who was working in the fields. But the middle of the road, dropping Samosir. Samosir picked it up and put back into place. He gave to his father. Toba is very angry. he said "do botul Na ho ni dengke children. Dang suman pangalahom songon jolma. Lao cyan on dengke ho". Meaning "You really are a child fish. Not suitable for your character is like a human being. Go Fish out of here. Apparently, from a distance, she heard it. Naidoo then ran to her mother, crying. Toba realized his deeds. Suddenly, lightning appears and seized. Rain fell and streams overflowed. Naidoo told his mother to go to the mountain and climb trees too Cleaner. His mother returned to Mas fish. The river had turned into a lake named Lake Toba. Gununug had been turned into islands in the middle of the lake, given the samosir island's name. Until now Lake Toba and Samosir island is very famous. Names are both used as the name of one of the districts of Toba Samosir regency in North Sumatra province.
History
It is estimated that Lake Toba explosion occurred at about 73000-75000 years ago and is a Supervolcano eruption (super volcano) the most recent. Bill Rose and Craig Chesner of Michigan Technological University estimate that volcanic materials spewed out of the mountain as much as 2800 km ³, with 800 km ³ of rock and 2,000 km ³ overlies the volcanic ash which is expected in the wind to the west for 2 weeks. Volcanic dust in the wind has spread to half the earth, from China to South Africa. The explosion occurred during a week and throw the dust up to 10 km above sea level.
This incident caused mass death and in some species also followed extinction. According to some DNA evidence, this eruption also reduced the number of people to about 60% of the total human population of the earth at that time, which is about 60 million people. The eruption also caused the ice age, although experts are still debating.
After the eruption, the caldera formed which is then filled with water and became what is now known as Lake Toba. Upward pressure by magma that has not come out cause the appearance of the island.
International multidisciplinary research team, led by Dr. Michael Petraglia, revealed in a press conference in Oxford, the United States that has found a new archaeological site that is quite spectacular by the geologist in the south and north India. On the site it is revealed how people survive, before and after volcanic eruptions (Supervolcano) in Toba 74,000 years ago, and evidence of life under a heap of ashes of Mount Toba. Though the source of the eruption within 3,000 miles, from the distribution of ashes.
For seven years, experts from Oxford University is researching ecosystem project in India, to look for evidence of life and the lives they left behind equipment in a barren desert. Area with an area of
​​thousands of hectares of this was only the savanna (grassland). While the scattered bones of animals. The team concluded, quite large area was covered with dust from this ancient volcanic eruption.
The spread of volcanic dust is very broad, found almost worldwide. Supervolcano eruption comes from an ancient, namely Mount Toba. Allegations leading to Mount Toba, because it found evidence of volcanic dust molecules form the same point in 2100. Since the caldera crater, now a lake Toba in Indonesia, up to 3000 miles, from the source of the eruption. In fact, surprisingly enough, it turns out that the spread of dust caught up to the North Pole. This is reminiscent of the experts, how powerful the super volcano Toba eruption at the time.
