Some volcanically active areas:

One of the ideas that intrigued me about this area, is that the baths of Pozzuoli (and a number of other thermal spas) are close to Lake Avernus and Lake Avernus (which is a crater lake) was home to the Sibyl (remember the pose of the nymph that resembles Cassiopeia? could she be an oracle? a sibyl?). Lake Avernus is also considered to be the door to the underworld (essentially a watery hell-mouth).
The center rotum looks like the blue starry part might be a domed structure. There was a domed bathhouse both at Lake Avernus/Averno and at various of the other bathing areas (including Pozzuoli).
"In volcanic terms, modern Britain is rather dull. Our calderas are extinct, our tectonic plates long settled. The best chance you have of seeing lava is trapped inside an ugly lamp." -- Jamie Lafferty
