Tectonics and Convergent Margins

Evaluating Late Quaternary uplift in Greece and Cyprus

Claudio Vita-Finzi

Research School of Geological and Geophysical Sciences, University College, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT

Uplift data based on radiometric and archaeological dating are being used to trace the tectonic history of the eastern Mediterranean. In the Gulf of Corinth new U-series and 14C ages suggest that there is an upper limit to coseismic uplift on both main and antithetic normal faults and that distributed extension develops serially. U-series and 14C dates from southwestern Cyprus support geomorphological and archaeological evidence for Late Quaternary southward tilting of the island.
