Las excavaciones de la ciudad de Baelo Claudia fueron iniciadas en 1917 por Pierre Paris, a la sazón director de la École des Hautes Études Hispaniques: pero ya antes se habían sacado a la luz pilas de salazones (en 1870) y algunas sepulturas (en 1907). Después de 1921 el yacimiento sólo atrajo a unos cuantos visitantes curiosos y amantes de los objetos antiguos, hasta que en 1965 los arqueólogos de la Casa de Velázquez pensaron en reanudar las excavaciones, cuyos resultados habían sido muy prometedores. Los sondeos estratigráficos de 1966 mostraron que la historia del yacimiento abarcaba un amplio período del siglo II a. C. al siglo VII d. C., y las excavaciones del centro monumental se prosiguieron hasta 1990, año en que se realizaron los últimos sondeos de comprobación. Las excavaciones de Baelo fueron el tema de las primeras publicaciones de P. Paris y, desde 1973, lo son asimismo de una colección editada por la Casa de Velázquez.

Given the tremendous toll in human lives and attendant economic losses, it is appropriate that scientists are working hard to understand better earthquakes, with the aim of forecasting and, ultimately, predicting them. In the last decades increasing attention has been paid to the coseismic effects on the natural environment, creating a solid base of empirical data for the estimation of source parameters of strong earthquakes based on geological observations. The recently introduced INQUA scale (Environmental Seismic Intensity-ESI 2007 Scale) of macroseismic intensity clearly shows how the systematic study of earthquake surface faulting, coseismic liquefaction, tsunami deposits and other primary and secondary ground effects can be integrated with 'traditional' seismological and tectonic information to provide a better understanding of the seismicity level of an area and the associated hazards. At the moment this is the only scientific means of equating the seismic records to the seismic cycle time-spans extending the seismic catalogues even to tens of thousands of years, improving future seismic hazard analyses. This Special Publication covers some of the latest multidisciplinary work undertaken to achieve that aim. Eighteen papers from research groups from all continents address a wide range of topics related both to palaeoseismological studies and assessment of macroseismic intensity based only on the natural phenomena associated with an earthquake.
