Abstract

Preloess Quaternary and Pliocene deposits of different genetic types are developed in Belgrade area north of the Sava river, the Pannonian plain proper. Drilling data from Novi Beograd and Zemun, on the sequence of formation and genesis, substantiate the presence of two lithologic units: older, lake and polygenetic peat-marsh deposits and younger, polycyclic river deposits - "Makis Beds". Quaternary deposits, particularly earlier divisions of the Pleistocene, are thicker than expected. They form a thick lithostratigraphic sequence of polygenetic continental (lake, marsh, terrestrial) deposits which are superposed over Paratethyan, Pannonian and Pontian, sediments and lie under Lower Pleistocene "Makis Beds".
