Discussion Comment on: ‘A late Pleistocene clockwise rotation phase of

In a recent paper, Duermeijer et al. [1] report new palaeomagnetic results from the island of Za-kynthos (Greece). In many cases, these authors have re-sampled the original sites of Laj et al. [2] and the results are virtually identical to those of the earlier study except for much more precise biostratigraphic age control. Three middle Pleis-tocene sites (Bochali, Zakynthos town and Porto Roma) which were not sampled by Laj et al. document signi¢cant clockwise rotations. From the results obtained from these three new sites, the authors conclude that the 25 ‡ clockwise rota-tion of Zakynthos described by Laj et al. as af-fecting the entire western Hellenic margin more or less progressively over the last 5 Myr is muc
