The 1923 Tokyo earthquake is also known as the Kanto earthquake. Tokyo sits on three tectonic plates:theEurasian plate,the Philippine sea plate and the Pacific plate, and the earthquake was caused by friction between these plates. It hit at 11:58:44 am (local time) on 1 September 1923 and lasted between 4 and 10 minutes. Its magnitude was measured at 7.9 on the Richter scale. Although the focus of the earthquake was located below Izu Oshima Island in Sagami Bay, the quake devastated Tokyo, Japan's capital city, and caused massive damage throughout the Kanto region. Official confirmed deaths were 105,000, but there were another 40,000 or so who went missing as a result of the earthquake. The biggest single loss of life happened when a firestorm engulfed the Rikugun Honjo Hifukusho, or former Army Clothing Depot, in Tokyo, where some 38,000 people had taken shelter. One of the most devastating effects of this particular earthquake was the fact that fire spread so quickly. This was because the quake occurred around lunchtime, at a time when many people were cooking with open fires. Winds from a nearby typhoon in northern Japan helped fan the fires, and even caused firestorms in many parts of Tokyo, killing people who apparently were trapped when their feet were stuck in the melting tarmac of the roads. The fires were difficult to put out as the earthquake had caused water pipes to break. Hundreds of deaths were also caused by landslides in the hills and mountains of western Kanagawa prefecture. Earthquake-generated tsunamis killed around another 100. Overall, estimated damage included the loss of 570,000 residences and a cost in excess of one billion U.S. dollars in today's figures.
