摘要为了建立一个全面的地震目录,超过了罗马内的破坏阈值的地震,我们收集了所有的主要历史来源,描述地震引起的影响内的城市,集成文学文献与金石和考古地震证据。这是通过检查数百项研究来实现的,这些研究涉及在过去两个世纪中在Urbs Aeterna进行的考古发掘,寻找同震性质的线索,无论作者是否明确引用。我们还试图确定造成罗马破坏的地震的震源,指出每个事件的震中/场地参数和受影响的建筑物。考虑到来源涵盖的时间跨度很长(约。2.5 kyr),我们的结果表明,罗马的地震活动性总体水平较低($$ ext{ Is}<8$$ MCS),这主要是由80 km以外的亚平宁断裂系统的周期性破裂引起的。
Abstract With the goal of constructing a comprehensive seismic catalogue of earthquakes that exceeded the damage threshold within Rome, we collected all the primary historical sources which describe earthquake-induced effects inside the city, integrating literary documents with both epigraphic and archaeoseismic evidence. This was achieved by examining hundreds of studies involving archaeological excavations performed within the Urbs Aeterna during the past two centuries, searching for clues of a coseismic nature, both explicitly quoted by the authors or not. We also tried to identify the seismogenetic sources of the earthquakes that were responsible for damage in Rome, indicating for each event both the epicentral/site parameters and the affected buildings. Considering the long time-span covered by the sources (ca. 2.5 kyr), our results indicate an overall low level of seismicity for Rome ($$ ext{ Is}<8$$ MCS) which is mainly induced by the periodic rupture of the primary Apennine fault systems located over 80 km away.
