Yellowstone Caldera in Yellowstone National Park is a famous example of a caldera volcano. It has erupted catastrophically in the past, creating a large caldera that measures about 45 by 30 miles.
I'm guessing that the biggest volcano eruption was Krakatoa. It covered half the world in Ash.mount kimbamapoop in 1955 well acttuly mount vesuves is the wordls biggest volcano in the world and eruption everThe worlds biggest volcano is in Hawaii it is called Mauna Loa it is 13,677 feet above sea level it is actually bigger than Mount EverestIn recorded history, the Tambora, Indonesia eruption in 1815 is considered the largest eruption Recorded by man. As for archaeological history, it's a toss up between the Toba Caldera, Sumatra Indonesia, which erupted approximately 74,000 BC, and the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff Eruption of Yellowstone Caldera, USA, which occurred approximately 2.1 million years ago.Although the Toba Caldera is considered to have greater damage to the world.

== == The Caldera itself was formed about 28Ma years ago, however the Dotsero Volcano last erupted about 4100 years ago which is not that long in the geographical scheme of things. So although there are no outward signs of volcanism, the odds are that there is some heat down there somewhere, as we learned last year from the Four Peaked volcano in Alaska that had not erupted in 10,000+ years came to life.
The area of La Garita Wilderness is 524.578 square kilometers.
The explosion occurred 26 million years ago in North America. No one was living there at the time. Modern humans evolved in Africa 200,000 years ago, so there weren't really any humans around anywhere. Lots of animals and plants were toasted. There is a national monument of fossilized animals that were likely killed by the ashfall from La Garita. Search for ashfall fossil beds state historical park
