Toba Supereruption Welcome! You are encouraged to register with the site and login (for free). When you register, you support the site and your question history is saved.Geologists believe that one of the largest volcanic eruptions in human history occurred 74,000 years ago, the Toba supereruption. In one area, Middle Paleolithic tools of similar styles have been found and dated to closely before and after the Toba supereruption, indicating that the humans who lived after the supereruption were members of the population that had lived in that area prior to the eruption. Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument? Most tools used by the population prior to the supereruption were destroyed in the aftermath of the eruption. Other evidence indicates that tools of similar styles had been used in the area long prior to the supereruption. Some populations under the massive supereruption traveled long distances to attempt to find a better place to live. After the supereruption, a new population might have found and adopted use of the tools that had originally belonged to a population that was destroyed by the supereruption. Research has suggested that many animal species went extinct as a consequence of the supereruption. Review Answer
