1787 Boricua earthquake : ウィキペディア英語版 | 1787 Boricua earthquake
The 1787 Boricua earthquake struck the island of Puerto Rico on May 2. The magnitude of the earthquake is believed to have been of 8.0–8.5; however, that might not be an exact number. The epicenter is thought to have been somewhere north of Puerto Rico, probably on the Puerto Rico Trench.〔 ==Effects==
According to some sources, the earthquake was felt all across the Island. It demolished some structures like the Arecibo church,〔(Arecibo ) on EdicionesDigitales〕 along with monasteries like El Rosario and La Concepcion. It is also reported that it damaged the churches at Bayamon, Toa Baja and Mayagüez. It also caused considerable damage to the forts of San Felipe del Morro and San Cristobal, breaking cisterns, walls and guard houses.〔〔(El Morro, San Cristobal y San Geronimo en peligro en caso de terremoto ) on NoticiasOnline (6/7/2009)〕 Apparently, the earthquake did not cause major damage in the South of the island.〔(Historia sísmica de Puerto Rico: Terremotos significativos en la zona de Puerto Rico ) on SalonHogar〕
