In this region, the only significant seismic event of the instrumental era occurred in 1998 north of the Pollino Range (Mw 5.6, Fig. 1). No seismic event with intensity greater than VIII on the Mercalli–Cancani–Sieberg (MCS) scale is present in the historical records, whereas strong earthquakes occurred immediately north (1836 M 6.0; 1857 M 7.0) and south (1184 M 6.7; 1836...
