29 November 1795 Kahramanmaraş Earthquake, Southern Turkey

Abstract: Major tectonics on the Kahramanmaraş region are the northern strand of EAFZ (Sürgü fault zone, Çardak segment, Savrun segment and Toprakkale segment) and the southern strand of EAFZ (Gölbaşı segment, Amanos sgment), Engizek Fault Zone, Kahramanmaraş Fault Zone and The Narlı segment of DSFZ. An earthquake, occurred in Kahramanmaraş, 1795, is mentioned a manuscript named Divan-ı Hasmi which is found at Koyunoğlu Library in Konya. According to manuscript the Mercalli Intensity of the earthquake has calculated as … Show more

“…Nalbant et al [22] studied the KM zone (the area between Kahramanmaras and Malatya), which has gathered significant amount of stress during the last 200 years; thus the magnitude of a possible earthquake along the segment ruptured by 1114 (Mw > 7.8) and 1513 (Mw > 7.4) earthquakes is expected to be larger than 7.3. Palutoglu and Sasmaz [18] pointed out that another destructive earthquake in the vicinity of study area took place in 1795 with a magnitude of 7.0 ( Figure 2). Accordingly, Golbasi-Turkoglu Segment, the KFZ, the Engizek Fault, and the Cardak Fault come to the forefront.…”
