At both incidents huge parts of the Ramnefjell mountain fell into the water, resulting in "tsunamis" destroying houses and killing many people. The first of these disasters took place January 15, 1905, a hundred years ago to-day, and the Regional State Archives of Bergen has in co-operation with Bjørn Davidsen presented material about these disasters. The Digital Archives has published Burials in Loen 1881-1936.BK http://www.riksarkivet.no/bergen/publikasjoner/artiklar/andre/loen1905.html <http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=gr144 81881&postnr=&spraak=e>
