Fig. 11.10. Tectonic and palinspastic maps of the 

 Taconic system in eastern New York, western New 

 England, and southern Quebec, after Cady, 1945. 

 The palinspastic map attempts to restore the thrust 

 slices to their approximate position before they 

 were moved westward. Since the Devonian strata 

 were deposited after the Taconic orogeny, they 

 were not displaced by it and do not participate 

 in the restoration. S.L. means slice or thrust sheet 

 and the abbreviations in the tectonic map may be 

 identified by comparison with the palinspastic 

 map.
