The Columba volcano is located in Eastern Campo de Calatrava. This volcano is referred at first time at works of Francisco Hernández Pacheco (1932). They were taken again by Ancochea Soto (1983), improved and repressed by Poblete and Ruiz (2002). This author established relatives ages from lava flow which could made a blockade into the Jabalón river and generate levels of fluvial-lacustrian origin, from the obstruction of water flow. Those lava flows are aged from medium and upper Pleistocene. The radiocarbon analysis on samples of organic dregs found in an paleosoil located under the base surge deposit, have revealed an absolute age of 6560 ± 130 and 6590 ± 200 BP. This latter data allows us refer to hidromagmatic eruptions from the Holocene period at Columba Volcano. Eruptive activity into Holocene is described for the first time in the volcanisme of Campo de Calatrava
