This is fluvial (river-channel) deposit from the Pleistocene near the village of Kouklia in southwestern Cyprus. The large boulders are mostly gabbro and diabase. These rocks were carried here from the Troodos ophiolite which is about 30 kilometers upstream.
There are several layers with different grain-size. Layer of coarse sand and gravel is between two layers of conglomerate. Below the fluvial sequence is a layer of marly chalk.
