1 the point on the earth's surface directly above the origin of an earthquake:
The Great Nicobar islands lie at the closest point to the epicenter of the earthquake.
The U.S. cannot simply assume that it will remain the epicenter of scientific research and technological innovation.
We have also undertaken very intensive excavation in many of the monumental buildings and complexes that make up the site's epicenter.
Royal individuals mostly lived in palaces in the epicenter.
As indicated earlier, the causeways do not connect termini with each other; rather, they connect the termini with the epicenter.
As in the epicenter, however, spur causeways connect elite residential groups and their associated temple-pyramids with these outlying termini.
In addition to the two reservoirs in the epicenter, four wells are known in the civic or communal spaces; the rest occur within residential units.
Seeing triadic interactions as the epicenter of development does not necessitate relegating cultural variability to the sidelines.
The second ring of architectural nodes and termini exist at a distance of 4.5-7.5 (and possibly up to 9.5) km from the epicenter.
All of the known termini from this initial ring have plazas that are as large as the major plazas in the epicenter.
