Having been looking at the red link for "847 Antioch" for over a year, I decided to investigate, and now I wish I hadn't. There are a number of sources for this and other earthquakes in 847 AD, but it's somewhat uncertain to what extent they are related: hence the inexact nature of some of this article's contents. Maybe it needs some pruning.
I had to put the coords for the epicenter in order to get the bullseye to work on the map, but this is obviously not known. And so on... >

There are two epicentral locations given for this earthquake. Sbeinati et al. give (34.4, 36.3) and both NGDC and Utsu give (33.5, 36.3) [1]. I also wonder about the naming of this earthquake, as the worst damage seems to have been in Damascus. Mikenorton ( talk) 23:36, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
