Abstract
Like other mountainous regions of the Caucasus, the South-Eastern Caucasus is an epigeosynclinal mountain system formed by the first and middle alpine folds. Between the Alpine fold stage and the orogenic stage, the South-East Caucasus Mountains were denuded and turned into hilly, low mountain plains in the Oligocene and Miocene. Wrinkled structures were destroyed by denudation and a mostly neutral relief type was formed. Key words: Greater Caucasus, southern slope of the Greater Caucasus, morphostructure, wrinkled relief, geological development
