Navigate to Abdipasa, Turkey. Set the map to "Terrain" mode. The small valley on the west to Abdipasa seems to be the result of a diverging process. How had the diverging process managed to took place within the mountain system, the mountain system that is thought to be under heavy compression at that time? That's one of the points of the next post on the mechanism of Black Sea opening and the Crimean Mountains origin.
