Abstract

Results of the study of the source area of strong earthquakes are brought, which occurred in Central and Southern parts of the Republic of Armenia in prehistoric and historic times, as well as recently. Some time after the publication of the first report in scientific literature, as well as in the results of own researches new data appeared, which demand making corrections in the geological characteristics of the source areas, as well as make amendments in regard to the authenticity of this or that seismic event. A series of regularities of geological structure of source areas of strong earthquakes in Armenia are singled out.
