Реферат:	eng: The lower Katun' area has a complex neotectonic framework, with the largest fault zone of Katun' consisting of several en-echelon graben segments. Late Pleistocene sediments that fill the Katun' Fault bear signature of earthquake-induced soft-sediment deformation (seismites). Deformation due to seismic triggers can be discriminated from nonseismic one on the basis of special features and be related to prehistoric earthquakes according to a number of criteria. The observed deformation inside and outside burial mounds of the Chultukov Log-1 group may result from an earthquake that occurred in the end of the first millennium BC. Fault scarps in Late Pleistocene sediments, as well as deformed Iron Age tomb patterns, indicate that the Katun' lower reaches can have experienced past earthquakes of intensity at least 5 or 6 and magnitudes from 4.5 to 6.0. © 2012.
