text:
The Maraş Triple Junction is a geologic triple junction of three tectonic plates: the Anatolian Plate, the African Plate and the Arabian Plate. The Maraş Triple Junction is found where the side-by-side African and Arabian plates, both drifting north and demarcated by the north-south trending Dead Sea Transform, come up against the Anatolian Plate lying across their path at the East Anatolian Fault. The junction site is near the Gulf of Alexandretta, and is ~700 km distant from the Karlıova Tripl
