... of the surrounding Aegean region. The stratigraphy (relative position, 3D geometry, dating) of these deposits is still subject to controversies. The syn-rift evolution of the central part of the southern coast of the Corinth rift is revisited, based on new sedimentological and paleontological data. While ostracods...

Regional exploitation. A. Fountain of Glauke, at the Ancient Corinth, build directly in the oolitic dune (5 meters high); the oblique stratification can be observed; behind is standing a column of the Apollo Temple of Ancient Corinth, which is a monolith also build in oolitic dune. B. Quarry of Examilia, East of Corinth, showing extraction tool marks and known to have been exploited in antique times; the facies is similar to the one observed in the archaeological site of Ancient Corinth, the stratification is also clearly marked. See Figure 1 for location.

We infer from this that catchments in the Corinth Rift must have a response time of ∼10 4 yrs for this signal to be observed in the basin. Our finding that sediment routing systems at a regional scale are sensitive to climate change...
