In the Greek or Aegean bow, the most seismic region of the country which in the past has produced deadly and destructive earthquakes above 7 Richter, Dutch researcher Frank Hoogerbetz focuses in his post.

In his post on X, the controversial researcher mentions that he observes moderate seismic activity at the ends of the Greek arc, specifically from the southwest of Crete while reaching even off Cyprus. In fact, the researcher also refers to the great earthquake that had occurred in 365 AD southwest of Crete with a magnitude of 8.6 Richter wanting to demonstrate the sizes that the Greek bow can give.

The Dutch researcher in February 2023 had predicted the killer earthquake of 7.8 Richter in Southern Turkey and Syria – followed by a second earthquake measuring 7.7 Richter – which claimed the lives of more than 50,000 people.

Regarding his post on Greece, Frank Hoogerbetz explains that the earthquake southwest of Crete in 365 AD. it took place at sunrise and while planetary movements were peaking in combination with a full moon.

When asked if such a big earthquake can “give” a tsunami in the area, he says characteristicallyabsolutely! In 365 (AD) a great tsunami devastated the coastal areas in the eastern and southern Mediterranean, causing great devastation, especially Libya, Alexandria and the Nile Delta. According to information, the ships were thrown 3 kilometers inland”.

What is the Greek bow?

The Hellenic bow or the Aegean bow is an arcuate mountain range of the southern Aegean Sea located at the southern limit of the Aegean plate. Geologically it results from the subduction of the African plate beneath it. The subduction zone, called the Hellenic Trench, runs parallel to its southern side. The Aegean Plate, a microplate, is often considered part of the Eurasian Plate from which it is in the process of diverging. The arc itself is mainly marine, the mountain peaks appearing as the islands in the Ionian Sea, Crete, or in the Dodecanese group. It includes in continental territory the Peloponnese, Crete, Rhodes, and the southern coast of Anatolia, thus including both Greece and Turkey.
