Abstract
dc.description.abstract
How has a four-century old church managed to stand on its feet, resisting more than 15 earthquakes of magnitude over 7? Starting from this question, this research examines the church's subsoil to suggest that its foundations, built in 1586, perhaps would be one of the first earthquake-resistant structures in Chile
