Résumé anglais The Lebanese subcoastal area is characterized by the presence of a great number of erosion platforms some of which are to be found at a height of 300 meters and occasionally 500 metres above sea-level. These rasas cannot here be assigned to continental erosion whose traces are paradoxically few. Hence Lebanon lends itself remarkably to a study of the various types of littoral shaping and it is possible to throw light on the respective parts played by the structure, the glacio-eustatic fluctuations of the sea-level, the climatic changes, and, finally, an important uplift in the Quaternary.
