Scientists are releasing results of a study aimed at gauging the strength of earthquake faults, which could help them pinpoint weak ones at risk of breaking and unleashing temblors.
The earthquake fault probably buckled in two stages, and the hardness of the terrain contributed to the wide reach of the damage, scientists say.
11 of 13 great ancient cities were near a major earthquake fault.
