Excel can calculate LOG10 of negative numbers?

In a simple excel calculation I found the negative numbers of LOG10 with the following syntax:

=LOG10(-1)

Excel resolves with

#NUM!

There is a way to calculate it?

Thanks

    The concept of Log is only for positive numbers not for negative number. Hence, Excel's behaviour is correct.
