Hyblaean Mountains
The Hyblaean Mountains (Italian: Monti Iblei)〔(ITALY'S VOLCANOES: THE CRADLE OF VOLCANOLOGY - Monti Iblei , Sicily, Italy )〕 are a mountain range in south-eastern Sicily, Italy. They are included in the provinces of Ragusa, Syracuse and Catania, and reaches the highest altitude with Monte Lauro, at 986 m.
==Geology==
The range is composed of white limestone rocks, characterized by Karst topography. The name derives from the Siculi king Hyblon, who gave a portion of his territory to Greek colonists to build the town of Megara Hyblaea. The rivers eroded the plateau, forming numerous and deep canyons. In the coastal area sandstone is also present, here called ''giuggiulena''. In some areas, such as that of Monte Lauro (once part of submerged volcanic complex), volcanic rocks are also present.
