Since 2014 Jan Kochanowski University in Kielce participate in the research in Paphos region in SW Cyprus. The aim of geomorphologic study was the age and sediments of terraces and floodplains in Ezousas river valley. Results of TL dating indicate distinct differentiation in fluvial activity in the Late Pleistocene and Holocene. Two main alluviation phases were distinguish: 75-48 ka and 25-13 ka. Relief and the varied tectonic movements had a great impact on the valley formation and alluvial features.
