This study provides deeper insights on our knowledge of the 847 AD earthquake that struck a large area in Central-Southern Italy causing diffuse damages in northern Campania, Molise, and Latium. Through the integration of archaeoseismic observations, geological and geophysical surveys together with a critical review of historical written sources, it was possible to identify evidence of seismic effects on ancient Medieval buildings or structures uncovered during archaeological excavations.

Abstract
This study provides deeper insights on our knowledge of the 847 AD earthquake that struck a large area in Central-Southern Italy causing diffuse damages in northern Campania, Molise, and Latium. Through the integration of archaeoseismic observations, geological and geophysical surveys together with a critical review of historical written sources, it was possible to identify evidence of seismic effects on ancient Medieval buildings or structures uncovered during archaeological excavations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
