The event caused 420-500 deaths and 6000 injured. James and Ghashghaie (1960) reported that small cracks were developed during the 1960 earthquake. On a map of the Lar area, the authors drew a 2.5-km fault line labeled as \u201cground fracture\u201d in the alluvial deposits that connects to Kuh-e Qermez (the Red Mountain). The reported ground fracture with NNE\u2013SSW strike is located between the town of Lar in the south southwest and the Kuh-e Qermez in the north northeast, with the east\u2013southeast block downthrown. The nature of this fracture is not known; we only know that this medium-magnitude earthquake in the Zagros was not associated with coseismic surface faulting (Berberian, 2014).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div class='avia-gallery  avia-gallery-1 avia_lazyload avia-gallery-animate avia_animate_when_visible '  itemprop=\"ImageObject\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class='avia-gallery-thumb'> <a href='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-1.jpg' data-rel='gallery-1' data-prev-img='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-1-495x400.jpg' class='first_thumb lightbox ' data-onclick='1' title=''  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" ><img  src='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-1-260x185.jpg' width='260' height='185'  title='Lar Earthquake of 24 April 1960, Mw=6.1' alt='' \/><\/a> <a href='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-2.jpg' data-rel='gallery-1' data-prev-img='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-2-420x400.jpg' class='lightbox ' data-onclick='2' title=''  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" ><img  src='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-2-260x185.jpg' width='260' height='185'  title='Lar Earthquake of 24 April 1960, Mw=6.1' alt='' \/><\/a> <a href='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-3.jpg' data-rel='gallery-1' data-prev-img='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-3-338x400.jpg' class='lightbox ' data-onclick='3' title=''  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" ><img  src='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-3-260x185.jpg' width='260' height='185'  title='Lar Earthquake of 24 April 1960, Mw=6.1' alt='' \/><\/a> <a href='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-4.jpg' data-rel='gallery-1' data-prev-img='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-4-495x400.jpg' class='lightbox ' data-onclick='4' title=''  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" ><img  src='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-4-260x185.jpg' width='260' height='185'  title='Lar Earthquake of 24 April 1960, Mw=6.1' alt='' \/><\/a> <a href='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-5.jpg' data-rel='gallery-1' data-prev-img='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-5-495x366.jpg' class='lightbox ' data-onclick='5' title=''  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" ><img  src='http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Lar-5-260x185.jpg' width='260' height='185'  title='Lar Earthquake of 24 April 1960, Mw=6.1' alt='' \/><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[113],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16688","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-today-in-earthquake-history"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16688"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16688"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16688\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16700,"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16688\/revisions\/16700"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16688"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16688"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/old.iiees.ac.ir\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16688"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
