Catalogues of past earthquakes and landslide records indicate significant damage in southern Italy, particularly in the Apennine Mountains. The age and origin of these landslides remain largely unknown, but 14C data suggests that some date back to the Late Pleistocene-Holocene. Our project aims to investigate the triggering factors and origins of these large prehistoric landslides in the Daunia region, focusing on their seismic-induced mechanisms. To distinguish earthquake-induced landslides, we will use a newly developed morphometric Index of Potential Trigger (IPT). The age of possible triggers will be obtained through radiometric dating of the most relevant landslide failures. The cooperation between countries promotes knowledge transfer by involving junior researchers in leading positions. Czech expertise and Italy's geological knowledge and comprehensive landslide inventory compiled by CNR-IRPI offer an excellent test site. This collaboration aims to advance the understanding of landslide dynamics, providing valuable insights for seismic assessment at regional and local levels.
