Friday May 12th afternoon (11:00-18:00) -Field trip of nearby geological features
THE QUESTION OF THE DAY!: Is the Taygetos range a compressional anticline, an exhumed dome, a fault-bounded horst, or everything at once?
This question will discusses during a short field trip across the multiple phases of deformation in the Southern and Central Peloponnese, with stops along the alpine fault-and-thrust belt, the active normal faults of East Messenia, and the northern termination of the Taygetos metamorphic window.
