... associated with the migration of thrusting activity toward the interior of the basin. The Aramsu range in the western part of the basin (Fig. 2) may provide an example of a similar intrabasinal uplift, but at a later stage in its development. It is a large uplift block, cored by older basement rocks...

... Range, revealed two unknown historical earthquakes. The first one, which occurred along the southern rupture in the late 7th century A.D., gave rise to a seismic scarp; the latter broke through the river floodplain and a tash-koro (ancient settlement). The second one, which occurred along the northern...

..., in a region of weak seismic activity ( Fig. 1 ). The main shock reached intensity MM IX and produced a long system of non-gravity surface breakage north of the epicenter [ 6 , 7 ]. Two largest surface ruptures in the Suusamyr basin and along the Aramsu Range, both of a roughly west-east strike, separated...
