I'm doing my PhD dissertation on the liquefaction and tsunami related to the 1692 Port Royal earthquake. It's incredible, but this print is quite solidly based in first-hand accounts of the event. Several people mention the dogs, and there were pirate types that went around as well, robbing corpses, cutting off fingers that had swollen too much to remove the rings. It's grizzly stuff, but makes for an interesting break from interpreting seismic lines and mapping faults!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02571722837899225577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563205518828267408.post-64935599448369344182008-11-03T07:04:00.000-08:002008-11-03T07:04:00.000-08:00I just learned about "tempestites".

I would like to think this is a pretty scary thing!
