Hi Jeff:

I can't confirm it without knowing the geology of the area, but it looks more like differential erosion has exposed an uplifted but un-deformed sedimentary rock sequence with nearly horizontal or slightly dipping bedding.

A patron here is very interested in a geologic feature in Turkey, visible at http://binged.it/17SCnzL or http://goo.gl/maps/UplsF

I suspect that it's a volcanic caldera, but can anyone confirm?

Thanks!
