Rome, 4 march   The topics addressed in this study day will be historical earthquakes, tsunamis, the effects on the ground produced, as well as information taken from historical sources, drawings and stories collected after these catastrophic events. Historical earthquakes are a vast and debated topic which also represents the history of the teachings that could be better identified. The damage produced by the earthquakes of the past was always very heavy and the reconstruction of the images and historical information has been and will be learned for the future. Much more, however, can be done with the joint effort of the whole scientific community.
