The L’Aquila area (Abruzzo, Central Italy) struck by the 6 April 2009 Mw 6.3 seismic event is a typical example of an earthquake‐prone region, the location of which historical seismicity needs to be better located. Thanks to a large body of geological, seismological, and geodetic evidence, the deep source of the 2009 mainshock...
