Kula Volcanic Geopark

 * ... that the volcanic area of Kula Geopark was mentioned by the Ancient Greek geographer Strabo in the encyclopedia Geographica as Katakekaumene, literally "fire-born" "Burnt Land"?  Source: "The outstanding volcanic structures of the UNESCO Global Geopark area are well known since antique times where the great ancient Greek Geographer Strabo (63 BC-24 AD) in his majestic book “Geographica” named Kula as “KATAKEKAUMENE” (fire-born) because of the coal-black lava."

 * Symbol possible vote.svg Returning from prep so I can do more work on both this and Katakekaumene articles, replacing both with the more standard translation "burnt lands". Yoninah (talk) 12:59, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
