Abstract

Bosna i Hercegovina je seizmički aktivno područje s velikim brojem jačih potresa koji su se dogodili na njenom području, posebno u predjelima oko Banja Luke i južne Hercegovine. Međutim, naše poznavanje seizmičnosti Bosne i Hercegovine je u velikoj mjeri ograničeno na seizmičnost 20. stoljeća, tj. na period poslije 1906. kada je instaliran prvi seizmograf u Sarajevu. Za bolje poznavanje seizmičkog hazarda i rizika na području Bosne i Hercegovine, te njoj susjednih područja, što se posebno odnosi na južnu Dalmaciju, jedan od važnih koraka koji možemo napraviti je bolje poznavanje povijesne seizmičnosti. Stoga ovaj rad opisuje rezultate potrage u povijesnim izvorima za potresima koji su se dogodili u predinstrumentalnom razdoblju (prije 1906. godine) i koji mogu pomoći boljem poznavanju seizmičnosti Bosne i Hercegovine i susjednih područja. Dokumenti korišteni u ovom radu su razne kronike, pisma državnih službenika, novinski članci i ponekad čak i religijski dokumenti čija je poleđina iskorištena da bi se na njoj spomenuo potres. Potresi koji su pronađeni, a ne nalaze se u Hrvatskom katalogu potresa, dosta se dobro podudaraju s područjima jače seizmičnosti definirana na temelju instrumentalnih podataka. Najznačajniji pronađeni događaj je potres iz 1663., koji se osjetio intenzitetom VIIo-VIIIo po MSK ljestvici u Sarajevu. Pronađeni rezultati šire sliku o seizmičnosti i seizmičkom hazardu u Bosni i Hercegovini i trebali bi biti korišteni u budućim analizama seizmičkog hazarda i seizmičkog rizika Bosne i Hercegovine.

Abstract (english)

Bosnia and Herzegovina is aseismically active area with a lot of strong earthquakes which happened on its area, especially in areas of Banja Luka and southern Herzegovina. However, our knowledge of the seismicity of Bosnia and Herzegovina is largely limited to the seismicity of 20th century, i.e. on the period after 1906 when the first seismograph was installed in Sarajevo. For better knowledge on seismic hazard and risk in the area of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the areas adjacent to it, especially the area of southern Dalmatia, better knowledge of historical seismicity is one of the important steps we can make. Therefore, this work describes the results of a search in the historic documents for earthquakes which happened in pre-instrumental time and which can help to broaden the knowledge of seismicity of Bosnia and Herzegovina and its adjacent areas. Documents used in this work are different chronicles, letters of state officials, newspaper articles and sometimes even a religious document whose backpage was used to note an earthquake. The earthquakes that are found, which do not exist in the Croatian earthquake catalogue, have shown very good correlation with the areas of higher seismicity which are based on instrumental data. The most significant event which has been found is an earthquake from 1663. which was felt within tensity VIIo-VIIIo of MSK scale in Sarajevo. The found results widen the knowledge about seismicity and seismic hazard in Bosnia and Herzegovina,and should be used in future analysis of seismic hazard and seismic risk of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
