Timing, kinematics and cause of Aegean extension: a scenario based on a comparison with simple analogue experiments

• Since the early 1970s, most geodynamic models proposed for the Eastern Mediterranean consider that the initiation of extension in the Aegean, during the late Middle Miocene or later, was a direct consequence of the westward extrusion of Anatolia away from
