Middle Miocene incision resulted with the formation of several hundred meters deep box-shaped canyon (a, b, c). BaseMessinian incision formed a shallower concave canyon cut that was later filled with the Messinian evaporites (b, c). BaseOligocene incision affected the eastern and central part of the canyon (c). Note the lateral shift in the position of the canyonduring the three incision episodes.
