Description

Previous to the year 1468 it seems difficult to find the data of the earthquakes concerning Hainan Island. The Table is thought not always to coincide with the real conditions of the historical earthquakes, by the lack of data, though sought as hard as possible. The marks O, Θ both indicate that the earthquake was felt there at that time, and besides the latter mark Θ means that the earthquakes seated on the same line are no other than the same one. The figures, VI-II in parentheses stand for the seismic intensities presumed, VI being the disastrous earthquake, V strong, strong, IV strong, III rather strong, II moderate. The seismic intensity of the earthquakes unaccompanied by these figures are uncertain, but they can be presumed not over II, namely the moderate earthquake.
