By which I mean what is the actual cause of death for most people killed by earthquakes? I was reading a list of the 10 deadliest earthquakes ever and a number happened hundreds or even over a 1,000 years ago. This would be in a time where I presume people would have been less likely to live in large buildings and get buried under rubble. So how exactly were they killed?
In: 1
Things falling on / collapsing on people for the most part. Some of the impact / damage may be too powerful that even hiding under objects (like a table) may not be enough to save possible victims
