The Youngest Toba Tuff (YTT) eruption, which occurred in Indonesia 74,000 years ago, is one of Earth's largest known volcanic events. The effect of the YTT eruption on existing populations of humans, and accordingly on the course of human evolution, is debated. Here we associate the YTT with archaeological assemblages at Jwalapuram, in the Jurreru River valley of southern India. Broad continuity of Middle Paleolithic technology across the YTT event suggests that hominins persisted regionally across this major eruptive event.
74000年前发生在印度尼西亚的最年轻的多巴凝灰岩（YTT）火山喷发，是地球上已知的最大规模火山事件之一。YTT火山喷发对当时的人类种群，进而对人类进化进程产生的影响，一直存在争议。在此，我们将YTT火山喷发与印度南部朱勒鲁河谷贾瓦拉普拉姆的考古组合联系起来。整个YTT事件期间旧石器时代中期技术的广泛连续性表明，原始人类在这一重大火山喷发事件中在该地区持续存在。
