erosion or both."*

Fig. 465.—Uptilted Piedmonts of Marghelan.

In the Fergana basin we have, as already hinted, a remarkably good example of the differential earth-movements characteristic of a sinking deposition area with uplifting of eroding border ranges. And there, as in the Tarim basin, this movement has involved an encroachment of mountains on plains through uptilting of their margins. We have seen how, with the Alai Mountains, uplift was periodic with intervening times of quiescence, which with the Taldic gave rise to four erosion cycles, the first one closing in Central Asia's peneplain stage, and how
