摘要
The recent destructive earthquake (M-S 7.4) of 17 August 1999 in the Gulf of Izmit in north-west Turkey was not a surprise, neither for its location, large magnitude or for the damage it caused. Other, equally large magnitude earthquakes have occurred in the past in the region but we have chosen to present in this paper the earthquake of 10 July 1894 because it is one of the two large events to strike the Gulf of Izmit in the last 105 years, and in many respects similar to the recent earthquake of 17 August 1999 in size, location, and effects.
