   What is a palimpsest landscape?

   • Spatially, therefore, landscapes are composed of a mosaic of active and relict (inactive) landforms of different ages. A useful way to conceptualize the development of a palimpsest landscape is to consider each successive episode of landscape change to be a different 'layer' laid as a blanket across the landscape's surface (Bailey, 2007).

   Are palimpsest landscapes relict?

   • A key issue hindering the identification of relict elements of palimpsest landscapes, however, is correct interpretation of their formational processes, climatic or environmental setting and their age. Often this information is not available, and so the true age and evolution of palimpsest landscapes remain unknown.

   This rock tells a story first of deposition of sediment in a shallow body of water (stromatolites need light to grow, so it cannot be too deep), followed by lithification and tectonic compression (resulting in the foliation), followed by uplift, exposure, and weathering.
