Category:Tertiary volcanoes

Volcanoes that were active in the Tertiary period (65 million years ago to 1.8 million years ago). The Tertiary is increasingly a deprecated term, having been more recently split by scientists into the Paleogene period with the two most recent epochs reallotted to the Neogene period, but the Tertiary is still used occasionally especially in older vulcanology texts, sometimes without specifying the epoch or time span.
