In the Boyali area (northern Anatolia), a thick succession of the Early Maastrichtian - Middle Paleocene Tarakli Flysch crops out. The Tarakh Flysch represents a foredeep sediment deposited during the final stage of collision between the Sakarya and Istanbul-Zonguldak continental margins, that developed as a consequence of the closure of the Intrapontide oceanic basin.

Ordovician graptolites from the basal part of the Palaeozoic transgressive sequence in the Karadere area, Zonguldak Terrane, NW Turkey
Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Gutierrez-Marco, Juan Carlos; OKUYUCU, CENGİZ (2014-12-20)
The Karadere area to the east of Safranbolu in NW Anatolia is one of the very few localities in Turkey where the contact between the Cadomian basement and the Lower Palaeozoic transgressive succession is well exposed. The Ordovician graptolite Rhabdinopora flabelliformis (Eichwald) ssp. was found in the basal part of the Bakacak Formation, indicating an Early to early Late Tremadocian age for the beginning of the Palaeozoic transgression in the Zonguldak terrane. A few metres above this occurrence, another ...
Palaeoenvironment and human interaction during the last 4k years in the dried lake sediments (amik lake, southern turkey): evidences of lake level changes
El Ouahabi, Meriam; Hubert-ferrari, Aurelia; Auwera, Vander; Avşar, Ulaş; Karabacak, Volkan (2019-02-01)
The Amik Basin in the Eastern Mediterranean region has been continuously occupied since 6000-7000 BC. The landscape has sustained with highly variable anthropic pressure culminating during the Late Roman Period when the Antioch city reached its golden age. The basin also sustained a high seismic activity (M≥7) as it is a releasing step-over along the Dead Sea Fault. The study focuses on the sedimentary record of the Amik Lake occupying the central part of the Basin. Our objective is to constrain major paleo...
Middle-Late Triassic radiolarian cherts from the Arkotdag m lange in northern Turkey: implications for the life span of the northern Neotethyan branch
TEKİN, UĞUR KAĞAN; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Pandolfi, Luca; Marroni, Michele (2012-09-01)
Moderately to well-preserved, relatively diverse Middle and Late Triassic radiolarian assemblages have been obtained from the chert slide-blocks within the Late Cretaceous melange of the IntraPontide Suture Zone at the Pelitoren village to the NE of Kastamonu-Arac in northern Central Anatolia. In this locality, chert slide-blocks are tectonically overlain by metamorphic sole of the serpentinized peridotites belonging to the IntraPontide ophiolites. The oldest radiolarian assemblages, with the middle Late An...
Identity in Pontus from the Achaemenids through the Roman period
Gür, Selin; Erciyas, Deniz Burcu; Department of Settlement Archaeology (2018)
The Kingdom of Pontus ruled over the Black Sea Region from 302 to 64 B.C. and covered a large geographical area. From its foundation until the day it was destroyed, it hosted many cultures in its territory and tried to adapt to cultural changes throughout its history. The aim of this thesis is to examine the kingdom’s material culture in the light of the theoretical approaches to periods of cultural transition and to observe their effects on cultural identities. It also brings a theoretical approach to how ...
The Tarakli Flysch in the Boyali area (Sakarya Terrane, northern Turkey): Implications for the tectonic history of the IntraPontide suture zone
Catanzariti, Rita; Ellero, Alessandro; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Marroni, Michele; Ottria, Giuseppe; Pandolfi, Luca (2013-11-01)
In the Boyali area, northern Turkey, the tectonic units of the Istanbul-Zonguldak Terrane and the IntraPontide suture zone are thrust over the deposits at the top of the Sakarya Terrane, known as Tarakli Flysch. It consists of Early Maastrichtian-Middle Paleocene turbidite and mass-gravity deposits, whose source mainly corresponds to the Istanbul-Zonguldak Terrane, and, with a lesser extent, to the IntraPontide suture zone. These deposits were sedimented in a foredeep basin developed during the convergence ...
