Ahmedabad: Gujarat shared a long relationship with an earthquake because of his position in seismic lines.
But it was also the reason for the occupants of this region, for centuries, developing methods to fight the impact of natural phenomena, showing findings from Vadnagar’s excavation.
Dr.
Siddharth Prizomwala, a scientist from the Institute of Seismological Research (ISR) on Wednesday presented his findings on the last day of the two-day workshops organized by the Indian Archaeological Survey (ASI).
Studies by experts from ISR, ASI, Birbal Sahni Institute of Paleoscience, and Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology have found evidence of certainly a large earthquake for at least 1,000 years ago in the city recorded in the sediment layer which was explored by a team along with the wall falling from the period the same one.
Experts say that in the majority of cases, the impact of the earthquake is assessed by the impact of under-surface events or damage to the structure.
They pointed to the relatively loose land in Vadnagar because of the conclusion that it could become massive.
The job was to assess the magnitude.
What said about the city? “The implication of the error is that it exhibits how the human past Vadnagar is led and adjusted to the earthquake as a natural disaster and their resilience of the phenomenon.
This study is led by integrated, geological, geophysical and archeological experts will produce new insights and start a new chapter Archeao-seismology Gujarat, “said Prizomwala.
