What is the cornfield that became a volcano?

Mt. Paracutin is fabled to have sprung up overnight in a cornfield. Though it was not this rapid, it did grow very fast. It is a cinder-cone volcano, and is made of ash and cinders. Cinder-cones are the fastest forming volcanoes because they do not need a lot of lava to erupt. Cinder-cones are also the fastest to erode away.
