Abstract: | This research was inspired by an old stereoscopic viewer from the early 1900s, containing 42 glass slides depicting scenes from two ancient and almost forgotten Italian earthquakes. We refer to the earthquakes that struck Southern Calabria and Eastern Sicily in the years 1894 and 1905, causing extensive destruction and hundreds of deaths, but whose memory was blurred by the subsequent, great earthquake of the Sicilian Strait of December 28,1908 which caused about 80,000 deaths. |
