A). Map of paleo-incisions across the lower coastal plain and inner continental shelf in the study area. Basement-involved paleo-incisions (red lines) erode into pre-Quaternary basement while Quaternary paleo-incisions (green lines) are limited to the Quaternary section. This distinction is likely the result of differences in the mechanisms that drive incision with basement-involved systems controlled by allogenic mechanisms (i.e., changes in RSL) and Quaternary systems controlled by autogenic mechanisms (i.e., channel avulsions or local hydrodynamics). Gray areas are approximations of paleovalley widths and locations based on available borehole and seismo-acoustic data. The location of the central part of the Bulls Bay Paleovalley onshore was initially mapped by Colquhoun et al. (1972) while the location of this feature onshore near Bulls Bay was mapped by Weems et al. (2014). Additional mapping as part of this study connects the Bulls Bay Paleovalley to the Santee Incised Valley near Jamestown, South Carolina. The location of the Oceda Fault system is adapted from Clendenin (personal communication, 2017) and delineated by numerous boreholes drilled by the South Carolina Geological Survey. Borehole cross section indicated by blue line is shown in Figure 7A. B-G) Paleogeographic reconstructions showing the proposed evolution of the study area during the late Quaternary. Distinct phases of deltaic deposition associated with the Santee River are named here based on the scarps with which they are associated (e.g., Bethera and Awendaw deltas). B) Deposition of the Santee delta while the Bulls Bay Paleovalley was active. C) Deposition of the Santee delta during the RSL highstand associated with the Bethera Scarp. This feature was mapped by Colquhoun et al. (1972). D) Deposition of river-dominated deltaic deposits of the Santee delta during a regressive RSL phase following the avulsion of the Santee River from the Bulls Bay Paleovalley into the Santee Incised Valley. The abandoned Bulls Bay system onshore is expressed by topographic lows which, today, are still evident and occupied by Hell Hole Swamp (Colquhoun et al. 1972). E) Deposition of a wave-dominated phase of the Santee Delta associated with the Awendaw and Mt. Pleasant scarps. OSL dates from Shen et al. (2017) indicate that deposition of the medial part of this system was deposited between approximately 60 and 80 ka. F) Deposition of the Santee–Pee Dee deltaic complex during the late Holocene. Transgressed coastal lithosomes (shown here as delta-front or barrier-island deposits) migrate offshore where they begin to prograde under the influence of storm-driven, offshore-directed circulation. Onshore, freshwater peats and lagoonal deposits are common during the period from 4 to 10 cal ka BP (Hayes 1994; Sexton et al. 1992; Long and Hanebuth 2017). G) Study area as mapped by Cook (1773). The modern shoreline appears similar to what it did 245 years ago, before the anthropogenic changes to the system. The two main distributary channels, the North and South Santee rivers, appear much as they do today. PGp stratigraphic units comprise many of the shoals along the inner shelf offshore of the delta.
