deposition takes place, for most of the layers formed near the apex of radiation
afterwards suffer removal to a greater distance. No permanent growth of the
apex itself can take place without either a corresponding aggradation of its
debouching valley's flood-plain above, or a relative sinking of the plain below. Of
such a sinking we have manifold evidence, and it is the way in which the plains
of Central Asia sank that wrought their marginal peculiarities. This of course
is the uptilting of narrow strips of piedmont beds forming low ridges with fault-
scarps facing mountainwards and back of which the strata and conformable surface
slope into the basin where they are buried by later waste. Whatever the cause of
sinking, these uptilted piedmonts have resulted; and, with that part of the Anau
delta where the oases were, tilting appears to have been one of the controlling
factors of topography, not only of the present surface but also, as we shall see,
of the surface of antiquity now buried by later waste.
