Abstract:	The town of Siracusa is located in the Hyblean plateau, which represents the outcropping foreland forming the south easters portion of Sicily. The area is affected by a moderate seismicity, however, the potentially most hazardous event, witnessed by the seismic history of the area, is represented by an earthquake that occurred in 1693 that reached a MW of 7.4. The seismic source for this event is particularly doubtful and debated in literature. Some authors locate it inland, whereas others locate it offshore. [excerpt]
