AB We studied various Upper Miocene (Turolian) layers of superimposed soft-sediment deformation structuresinduced by liquefaction in the Granada basin (Betic Cordillera). These are principally load structures:sagging and dome load casts, ball-and-pillow and drop structures. Based on analyses of their morphologyand of the facies, these have been interpreted as being the result of liquefaction of non-cohesive sedimentsduring earthquakes. The intense synsedimentary fracturing and the presence of seismites highlight thestrongly influence of tectonic activity in the Granada basin during the Late Miocene, with earthquakes ofmoderate to high magnitude occurring which were capable of liquefying the sediment
