This is a list of earthquakes in 1903. Only magnitude 6.0 or greater
earthquakes appear on the list. Exceptions to this are earthquakes which have caused death, injury or damage. Events which occurred in remote areas will be excluded from the list as they wouldn't have generated significant media interest. All dates are listed according to
UTC time. The countries and their flags are noted as they would have appeared in this year for example the
Dutch East Indies being present-day
Indonesia. A quieter year than normal but one with many deaths. The bulk of the deaths in this year came from a quake which struck
Turkey in April. The largest event of the year was a magnitude 8.1 earthquake in
Greece but this only caused two deaths.
3,560 deaths were caused by the
1903 Manzikert earthquake. At least 1,001 people were injured. Major damage was caused with over 12,000 homes collapsing. Depth unknown.
