Rawa Danau Volcanic Complex (RDVC) in the western part of Banten—Western part of Java Island, Indonesia, holds records and histories of past violent volcanic eruption. These past volcanic activities manifested as huge Rawa Danau caldera and massive Banten Tuff pyroclastic deposits that are distributed for more than ten kilometres away from the source and have played an important role in shaping the morphology of Banten. Previous studies suggest that Banten Tuff is composed of various pumiceous pyroclastic deposits presumably formed in Early Pleistocene. The deposits cover vast area of Banten, and their thickness exceeds 200 m. Despite their significance, there are no detailed studies that discuss the stratigraphic and eruption dynamics of the deposits. This paper provides new insight on the eruption dynamics based on fieldwork observation, volcanic stratigraphy, and petrologic interpretation. The …
