1638 Calabrian earthquakes

The trend of normal faults extend southwards to the Strait of Messina, where they occur on the Ionian side in Sicily.[4] The Lake Fault, which produced a surface rupture, was responsible for the June 9 earthquake, based on rich historical documentation and paleoseismology.[4] The June 9 earthquake caused a large surface-fault rupture measuring 96.6 km (60.0 mi) long and 0.8 m (2 ft 7 in) tall.The fault rupture was visible, extending from Petilia Policastro to Sila, near the eastern shore of Ampollino Lake.The total number of dead was likely higher as these figures did not account for the many deaths that occurred in the months following the first earthquake due to injuries and deprevation.At least 116 inhabitants were killed in Belsito, 234 in Grimaldi, 495 in Carpanzano, 229 in Conflenti, 173 in Malito, 532 in Motta Sta Lucia, 1,200 in Nicastro, 102 in Piane Crati, 216 in Sambiase, 451 in Scigliano Diano and 126 in Feroleto.[17] Shortly after the March earthquakes, Ettore Capecelatro, an official from the Kingdom of Naples was ordered to survey the damaged area.The Neapolitan court wanted to reduce revenue loss by rebuilding production and creating new business opportunities.
