1968 Belice earthquake : ウィキペディア英語版 | 1968 Belice earthquake
The 1968 Belice earthquake sequence took place in Sicily between 14 and 15 January.〔〕 The largest shock measured 5.5 on the moment magnitude scale, with five others of magnitude 5+.〔 The maximum perceived intensity was X (''Intense'') on the Mercalli intensity scale. The earthquake sequence, centred between the towns of Gibellina, Salaparuta and Poggioreale, killed at least 231 people, possibly more than 400, with between 632 and about 1000 injured and left 100,000 homeless. It is known in Italy as Terremoto del Belice. ==Tectonic setting== Sicily lies on the complex convergent plate boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate. The geology of the western part of the island is dominated by the Gela Nappe, a thin-skinned fold and thrust belt. The Gela Nappe consists of Pliocene-Quaternary age sedimentary rocks deposited in the earlier foredeep, thrust up onto the thick carbonate sequence of the Pelagian-Hyblean Platform of the African Plate.
