Co-author Dr Fabrizio Galadini, a geologist and senior researcher at INGV, added: “Correctly recognizing the cause-effect relationship is essential to reconstruct the interplay between volcanic and seismic phenomena, and their effects on buildings and humans.”During excavations in the ‘Casa dei Pittori al Lavoro’, the researchers noticed something off about the collapsed buildings.
