AB The Guadix-Baza basin was an endorheic continental basin during the Pliocene and part of the Pleistocene,later being captured by a tributary of the Guadaquivir River which would turn into the Guadiana MenorRiver. This event had significant implications in the evolution of the basin, leading to a stage in whicherosion dominated over sedimentation. However, there is no consensus about the time in which thefluvial capture took place and various authors have proposed different ages using diverse chronologicalcriteria. This work describes a different hypothesis about the age of the fluvial capture and also providesnew insights on the evolution of the basin. The presence of metamorphic clasts in the fluvial sedimentsthat comprise the upper terrace of the middle and upper course of the Guadalquivir River allowed us toestablish new criteria about the age of the mentioned fluvial capture process
