Aha hantu ni hatoya cyane ku butaka, ariko hahurira ibintu byinshi by’umwihariko w’ikirere, geology, n’ubuzima butamenyerewe. Ni agace kari munsi y’ubuso bw’inyanja, gashyuha cyane, gafite ubutaka bwuzuyemo amavuta ya sulfure, gaze z’ubumara, n’ibiyaga by’umunyu.
Ibintu Bitangaje muri Danakil Depression

3. Amabara atangaje
- Ubona ibiyaga by’umunyu birimo amabara y’umuhondo, icyatsi n’umutuku bitewe n’imyuka ya sulfure na minerali zinyuranye.
- Aho hantu harasa nk’aho atari ku isi—hakunda kwifashishwa mu mashusho ya filime z’imyuka cyangwa z’ubumenyi bw’ikirere.
4. Ibizenga bya Volcan

Ese abantu babaho hariya?
- Yego, Abarabu b’Afar babayeho muri ako gace kuva kera.
- Babayeho mu buzima bukomeye, bakora ubucukuzi bw’umunyu, bakawutwara ku magare y’ingamiya.
- Ni bamwe mu bantu babayeho mu buzima bugoye cyane ku isi, ariko bafite umuco ukomeye wo kwihangana. Danakil Depression si ahantu hasanzwe. Ni nk’aho waba uri ku yindi mibumbe. Ushaka kumva uko isi ishobora kuba irimo ibanga, reba Danakil! Nubwo hakaze, haratanga isomo ku myitwarire y’isi, ku buzima no ku buryo bw’imibereho idasanzwe.
