Earthquakes that cannot be traced far may, however, be extremely violent, and examples of such convulsions are not uncommon in volc...anic districts, after some interruption of volcanic eruptions. Thus, on the 6th February, 1788, a great earthquake was experienced at Calabria, in Sicily, by which the town of Calabria, and about 200 other towns and villages were destroyed, and 100,000 human beings perished.
The disturbance, however, was limited to an area of about 600 square miles.* On the other hand, the great and cele • brated earthquake of Lisbon, which took place on the 1st November, 1 765, was felt throughout an oval area of enormous dimensions, the periphery of the oval reaching westwards in Europe as far as Bohemia, where the hot springs of Toplitz * It is recorded that during this remarkable earthquake the earth was in one particular spot rent by deep chasms, and so yiolently rocked, that the heads of the lai^gest trees almost touched the ground on either ride.
