Abstract :Throughout history, humankind has constantly faced natural disasters. Turkey is known as an earthquake country because it completed its formation in the third and fourth geological time. Many fault lines pass through Turkey, which is located between the Eurasian plate in the north and the Arabian and African plates in the south. This situation shows that almost all provinces in Turkey are earthquake zones. Hatay, located among these provinces, has taken its place as a first-degree earthquake zone. Due to its location, Hatay is a city that has been constantly exposed to earthquakes since its founding. Considering its history, the city has been destroyed many times and an urban settlement area has been formed again. The city, which was again destroyed by the earthquake that occurred on February 6 and 20, 2023, caused many losses of life and property. This situation has attracted the attention of researchers, and although the city has seen many devastating earthquakes, the aim of this study is to resettle the city.Keywords : Hatay-Antioch, History, Earthquakes, Effects
