Abstract
The 1981 seismic paroxysm of the Corinthian gulf was well inside the framework, of the geodynamic evolution of this graben with its successive enlargement. The serious damage, the surface rupture and the secondary effects defined a seismic area of an E-W general direction, which coincides with the main tectonic axes. The contribution of the tectonics, lithology and particular ground foundation conditions in the distribution of the seismic intensities has been clearly shown, after recording the damage, on the geological-tectonic map of a wider area and in maps, at a scale of 1∶2000, of four villages destroyed.
