We can find the representation of devil everywhere in the island of Lanzarote. Actually, such image was adopted not only by the National Park of Timanfaya but also by the island itself. This origins of the devilish presence in Lanzarote it's easy to explain: when the big volcanic eruption occurred, local people, who never before witnessed such power, described the volcanoes as a work of the devil.

The specific representation shown in this Waymark is placed by the entrance of the interpretative center of the National Park.
