An Entity of Type: earthquake, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The 1856 Heraklion earthquake, also known as the Crete earthquake or Rhodes earthquake occurred on the morning of October 12 at 02:45 am local time. This extremely catastrophic earthquake had an estimated magnitude of 7.7 to 8.3 at a depth of approximately 61 to 100 km. The earthquake was felt over a very wide area extending from Sicily, Italy to the Levant and North Africa. On the Greek island of Crete, the effects of the earthquake were cataclysmic, over 500 bodies were recovered in the city of Heraklion. Shockwaves from the earthquake were felt intensely, covering all of the Ottoman Empire; present-day Turkey, Cyprus and the Middle East where damage and human losses were reported. In Malta, the earthquake collapsed the Għajn Ħadid Tower—a coastal watchtower built around the year 1638. I

  • Στις 12 Οκτωβρίου 1856 (ν.η.) σημειώθηκε ισχυρός σεισμός στην Κρήτη και στη Ρόδο. Ο σεισμός ήταν ενδιάμεσου εστιακού βάθους και είχε μέγεθος 8,2 στην κλίμακα Ρίχτερ. Επειδή δεν υπήρχαν αρκετές μετρήσεις με όργανα, όπως γίνεται σήμερα, αναφέρεται ότι ο σεισμός μπορεί να ήταν 7,7 ρίχτερ. Έγινε στις 3 παρά τέταρτο το ξημέρωμα και το σίγουρο είναι ότι κράτησε παραπάνω από ένα λεπτό. (el)

In Cairo, Egypt, the earthquake destroyed buildings, created seiches in canals, and killed several people. Off the Egyptian and Italian coasts, sailors reported feeling a seaquake. (en)
