History of Guatemala
Volcanoes
The volcanic region of Guatemala consists of three elements: a row of
volcanoes of geologically recent origin, flanked by a deeply eroded
volcanic tableland of older origin to the north and the narrow coastal
plain constructed of volcanic debris on the Pacific slope. The alignment
of volcanic cones begins with the Tacaná Volcano (13,428 feet [4,093
metres]), located on the frontier with Mexico, and continues eastward
across Guatemala into El Salvador.
