*4.1. Paleogeometries*

Figure 4 displays the restoration of the two cross sections in the central (section A, Figure 4A) and eastern (section B, Figure 4B) sub-basins. The restoration stages are the paleo-geometries input to the thermal model. It should be noted that in Figure 4 and later figures (Figures 7 and 9), for the purpose of display and comparison between sections, section A is not vertically exaggerated while section B has a vertical exaggeration of 2. Below we present a short description of the geologic evolution portrayed by the restorations.
