在过去的 10-2000 万年中，土耳其和安纳托利亚高原的构造可以描述为三个大陆板块的交汇：安纳托利亚板块、阿拉伯板块和欧亚板块形成了一套多样化的构造边界。这种构造环境使东安纳托利亚高原和比特利斯缝合带成为研究大陆碰撞早期阶段及其后果的绝佳天然实验室。到目前为止，唯一经过充分研究的活跃大陆碰撞的例子是印度与欧亚大陆的碰撞以及随后的青藏高原的隆起。
During the last 10-20 million years the tectonics of Turkey and the Anatolian plateau can be described as the convergence of three continental plates: the Anatolian, Arabian, and Eurasian plates form a diverse suite of tectonic boundaries. This tectonic environment makes the East Anatolian plateau and Bitlis suture an excellent natural laboratory to study the early stages of continental collision and its consequences. Until now, the only well studied example for active continental collision has been that of India colliding with Eurasia and the subsequent uplift of the Tibetan plateau.
