About Tuya

A tuya is a type of distinctive, flat-topped, steep-sided volcano formed when lava erupts through a thick glacier or ice sheet. The generic name comes from Tuya Butte in British Columbia, Canada, possibly derived from an indigenous Tahltan word.

Tuya would fit in perfectly with the likes of Maya, Kaya and Tula.

Pronounced TOO-yuh.
