  Local Culture Zone

The Zone's main geographic feature here is an ancient lave flow that arrived at the coast after travelling about 25 km from its release point. 

Studies We learn how this material could travel so far, we explore the various "rivers' and see how they have shaped the land and how they have been since buried by nature. 

Geology
Loess covering ancient basalts and coarse alluvial deposits of greywacke are more dominant in this zone. These provide good soil for agriculture. Large areas of river and coast deposits surround the volcanic undulations.
