Abstract

We revealed traces of two earthquakes of the 10th and 12th centuries at six objects of the Afrasiab archaeological site. These traces include numerous ruptures and fractures that form a “flower” structure, a subsided graben, and the slopes and turns of fragments of fortress walls. The type of the deformation indicates that the epicenter of the earthquake of the 10th century was located to the west-southwest of the ancient city; the epicenter of the earthquake of the 12th century was to the south-southwest of it. The intensity of both events was VIII–IX points on the MSK-64 scale.

阿夫拉夏布考古遗址（乌兹别克斯坦撒马尔罕）废墟中的强震痕迹

摘要我们在阿夫拉西阿布考古遗址的六个物体上发现了 10 世纪和 12 世纪两次地震的痕迹。这些痕迹包括许多断裂和裂缝，形成了一个 "花 "形结构、一个下陷的地堑以及堡垒墙碎片的斜坡和转折处。变形类型表明，10 世纪地震的震中位于古城的西南偏西方向；12 世纪地震的震中位于古城的西南偏南方向。根据 MSK-64 级地震烈度表，两次地震的烈度均为 VIII-IX 级。
