Iapetus Suture (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

The Iapetus Suture is one of several major geological faults caused by the collision of several ancient land masses forming a suture. It represents in part the remains of what was once the Iapetus Ocean. Iapetus was the father of Atlas in Greek mythology, making his an appropriate name for what used to be called the 'Proto-Atlantic Ocean'. When the Atlantic Ocean opened, in the Cretaceous period, it took a slightly different line from that of the Iapetus suture, with some originally Laurentian rocks being left behind in north-west Europe and other, Avalonian, rocks remaining as part of Newfoundland.

(en) Сутура Япет — один з декількох великих геологічних розломів, створених зіткненням декількох давніх кратонів, що при цьому утворюють сутуру. Ця сутура частково є залишком океану Япет. Згідно грецької міфології Япет був батьком Атланта, назва є відсиланням на те що Япет був «протоатлантичним океаном». Атлантичний океан відкрився трохи іншою лінією, у крейдяний період, ніж по сутурі Япет, причому деякі спочатку лаврентійські породи залишились у північно-західній Європі а інші, авалонські породи, залишилися у Ньюфаундленді.
