  Description:
    Abstract:
      The Uruk Sulcus quadrangle lies along the south margin of
      Galileo Regio, a large area of ancient cratered terrain,
      part of which appears in the northeast corner of the map
      area. Galileo Regio is separated from Marius Regio, another
      region of ancient terrain to the southwest, by a
      swath of grooved terrain known as Uruk Sulcus. Marius Regio
      is in turn broken by bands of grooved terrain, including
      Tiamat Sulcus, which cut across the southwestern part of
      the map area. Each of these major terrains is probably of
      roughly uniform lithology, but they may be divided into
      smaller units of stratigraphic or tectonic significance or both.
