The point where an earthquake originates is called seismic focus.
It is just above the earth’s epicenter on the earth’s surface.
The focus is also known as hypocenter of an earthquake and here at this point ground ruptures.
As the ground breaks down, the vibrating waves travel away from the focus of the earthquake outwards in all directions
