Volcanic Neck


A volcanic neck is a cylindrical-shaped land form that stands above the Earths surface. They are created by magma solidifying in the vent of a volcano and are called a volcanic neck/plug when the rest of the volcano erodes away. This feature does not really affect humans in any way, it's just a good tourist attraction.
