 Maungawhau or in a way you can understand Mt Eden Mt Eden is an awesome place which started off as a little toddler which was only known as a mountain and not a town too like it is today. One devastating day when the little toddler (Mt Eden) was in a bad mood and didn’t want to go to the bathroom the way he should have he exploded with lava. This naughty volcano’s latest accident was around 60,000 years ago(58,000 BC). Mt Eden’s been cheeky 7 times now but he is now old and probably won’t cause any more mischief because he is now a monogenetic volcano which means it is incredibly unlikely for this guy to burst again but if he does it will be in a place he has never erupted before. Mt Eden is now 20,000-30,000 years old. The Mt Eden Domain is actually protected from damage, as an archaeological, by the historic places Act 1980 just beacause everyone likes it so much,lucky guy :).
