We use the assembled sedimentary evidence to test alternative tectonic models for Miocene basin formation in western Turkey. Our preferred tectonic model emphasises the importance of deposition in regional basins created by exhumation of metamorphic basement that was previously assembled during early Tertiary closure of the Tethys ocean.
