io. Sub-recent conglomerates. 

 These conglomerates have already been described in a previous 

 chapter. 1 They evidently belong to a period when the drainage of 

 the country followed the same lines as it does now, but when the 

 conditions of climate were such that the flow of water in the rivers 

 was much greater than it is at present. The conglomerates are 

 found in the channels of the Luni and of all its tributaries from the 

 Aravallis, but only in patches, as they have undergone a considerable 

 amount of denudation by winds and floods.
