Age of last eruption[edit]

There is an error with Nintoku's age of last eruption. The text in the first paragraph states the volcano last erupted 65 million years ago, but after that statement it mentions three lava flows 56.2 million years old. If the last eruption occurred 65 million years ago, how can three lava flows be about 9 million years younger? Black Tusk (talk) 04:49, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
