Abstract.
The Menderes Massif covers large areas in western Turkey. The better understanding of its tectono-metamorphic history would provide insight for the Alpine evolution of western Turkey and the entire eastern Mediterranean region. This paper summarizes the available literature on the metamorphic rocks of western Turkey and that of the Menderes Massif with special reference and emphasis to the papers presented in the special issue.
