Best Answer

A caldera is a depression in the land surface caused by the collapse of land into an emptied magma chamber as a result of an eruption of a stratovolcano. A caldera indicates that the volcano produced an extremely violent eruption.

Caldera is also the Spanish language word for cauldron.
