The Nide-Krehir Massif known also as the Central Anatolian Block is bordered by the sutures of the Neotethys Ocean. The massif suffered several deformation phases during and after the consumption of the surrounding oceans and the postcollisional events of the continental pieces of Anatolia in latest Cretaceous to Miocene. Previous paleomagnetic studies on the Nide-Krehir Massif and its surroundings displayed either insufficient data or have claimed large rotations and/or remagnetization. In order ...
