Geologists trace Euphrates origins via seismic surveys
A recent geological study revealed that the Euphrates River originated between 1.6 and 3.6 million years ago as a result of the intersection of two river systems in the Taurus Mountains in southern Turkey, due to tectonic activity. Scientists utilized seismic imaging to explore ancient river formations beneath the seabed and concluded that tectonic activity around Eastern Anatolia led to the joining of the "Kara Su" and "Murad" rivers in the past, forming the current Euphrates River. This discovery underscores the importance of understanding the river's history within the context of the region's geological and cultural development.
