The volcano of 1350BC erupted and destroyed the entire park. It caused a year long winter over most of North America from shore to shore, and even in Europe. The volcano at Yellowstone WILL erupt again; it's not an if but a when. When it blows, scientists estimate that it will destroy most of the western half of the US and probably North America and cause major weather changes across the globe.
The 1350 BC was not a super eruption. The last of those in Yellowstone was 640,000 years ago. Instead it was most likely a phreatic eruption, essentially a steam explosion. This type of eruption does not erupt fresh material from magma. Instead water come in contact with magma or superheated rocks underground and flashes to steam, reulting in an explosion. These eruptions can produce clouds of ash as rocks in or on a volcano are blasted apart.

Mount Etna's first recorded eruption was in 1500 BC, but it has likely been erupting for thousands of years prior to that.
The volcano in Santorini, known as Thera, is believed to have erupted around 1600 BC causing a massive tsunami that affected the neighboring island of Crete. This event is often associated with the decline of the Minoan civilization on Crete.

Mauna Kea's last eruption occurred around 4,500 years ago, based on geological records and studies. The volcano is currently considered dormant, with no signs of impending eruption.
