Abstract. We prove existence of infinitely many small amplitude periodic solutions for the nonlinear wave equation. Such solutions bifurcate from resonant finite dimensional invariant tori of the fourth order Birkhoff normal form of the associated hamiltonian system. As a consequence the origin is an accumulation point for these periodic orbits of longer and longer minimal period.
