Historic eruptions of Mount Fuji
Mount Fuji is an active volcano which is the highest peak in Japan. The latest eruption of Mount Fuji was triggered by an earthquake in 1707. The mountain as it appears now is known as the "New Fuji volcano", which began to erupt about 5,000 years ago. Under the "New Fuji volcano" lies the "Old Fuji volcano", which was active between 100,000 years ago and 9,000 years ago, and the "Komitake volcano", which was active 700,000 to 200,000 years ago.
