Volcanic Eruption Causes High Death Toll in London
#3
Dan I don't think there's any suggestion that the Eruption in 1258 caused the little Ice Age, I do believe the mean temperature was already in decline at that time though..
What this refers to is a singular event in the short term which resulted in famine and is based on the study of the mass grave's at St Mary's Spitalfields..... follow the link :wink:

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
