Pacaya, an active complex volcano in Guatemala, has eruped at least 23 times since Spanish conquest.
It first erupted 23,000 years ago and has been erupting continuously since 1965. Most of Pacaya's activity is Strombolian, with occasional Plinian eruptions that sometimes dust the nearby city of Antigua and Guatemala City with ash.
