Longxi earthquake was the only earthquake example, which ZHANG Heng’s Seismometer had detected. Therefore this event attracted the attention of the academic circle and also served as crucial evidence to examine the rational-ity of the reconstructed model of the seismometer. But for a long time, owing to the fact that the Jincheng-Longxi earthquake on February 28, AD 138 was mistaken as the event went against the historical records, it was refuted by the researches of both in China and abroad. By making careful textual research of historical records, especially by analyzing the description of Longxi earthquake of Houhan Shu, by studying the historical background exposed by historical literatures at that time, ZHANG Heng’s biography, his poems and place names of Han Dynasty, by com-paring five earthquakes occurred in Qing Dynasty and their attenuation of seismic intensity, the conclusion can be drawn that the Longxi earthquake should take place on December 13, AD 134 (the third year of Yangjia reign). As a rough assessment, the epicenter was in Tianshui area and the magnitude was about 7. Due to the political corrup-tion and inability to scientifically explain earthquake phenomenon at the end of Eastern Han Dynasty, a tragedy occurred during the later years of ZHANG Heng’s life that had direct relations with the earthquake successively occurred in AD 133 and AD 134 after invention of seismometer in AD 132. In order to analyze the ground motion at Lingtai caused by the event in AD 134, the digital broad-band seismic records of three Longxi earthquakes in recent years recorded by Luoyang seismic station are used. The numerical modelings are made from three aspects of seismic magnitude definition, digital broad-band seismograms and empirical Green’s function method. The results have shown that the maximum horizontal displacement at Lingtai is between 6~8 mm, and the maximum acceleration is less than 10?2 m/s2. These results have played an important role in quantitative test of the scientific reconstruction model of ZHANG Heng’s Seismometer.
