2020, Journal of Archaeological Science: ReportsCitation Excerpt :In this regard, we have carried out archaeoseismological studies at an accessible ancient site in the Kachchh Region. The straining of structures like monuments, pavements, and water supply facilities in the archaeological sites could be related to seismic ground motion, slope processes, wave actions or damage and abandonment due to war (Nikonov, 1988; DiVita, 1996; Nur and Ron, 1996; Stiros, 1996; Marco et al., 1997; Nur, 1998; Galadini and Galli, 1999; McGuire et al., 2000; Nur and Cline, 2000; Galli and Galadini, 2001; Guidoboni, 2002; Altunel et al., 2003; Sintubin et al., 2003; Meghraoui et al., 2003; Ambraseys, 2005; Bottari, 2005; Similox-Tohon et al., 2006; Galadini et al., 2006a, b; Psycharis, 2007; Galli and Naso, 2008; Kamai and Hatzor, 2008; Marco, 2008, Reicherter et al., 2009; Silva et al., 2009; Galli et al., 2010; Sbeinati et al., 2010; Barnes, 2010; Rodríguez-Pascua et al., 2011). Attributing the entire destruction to the occurrence of the seismic activity itself poses a great challenge.
