Abstract
There has been a considerable amount of studies of the lands bordering the Eastern Mediterranean basin but the basin itself is still relatively poorly known. The tectonic analysis of this basin is difficult to do because a great part of it has disappeared within a double system of subduction zones, the Hellenic one that is stip active and the Calabrian one that stopped being active less than one million years ago.
