🌋 Mystery solved? Greenland 🧊 #IceCoresreveal a massive volcanic eruption near the equator in 2930 BCE - one of the 15 biggest in the Holocene! Could this explain the sudden appearance of 'sun stones' in Denmark? #ClimateScience science meets #Archaeology ...

A presentation slide showing the connection between Bornholm artifacts and Greenland ice core data. The left shows a graph of sulphate aerosols from NGRIP ice cores, with a significant spike around 2930 BCE. On the right is a photo of a researcher in a red winter jacket holding an ice core sample. Text describes this as one of the 15 most powerful volcanic eruptions in the Holocene, comparable to the 43 BCE Okmok eruption in Alaska
