At the top of slope of Minde’s fault overlooking the village with the same name, this is a privileged site for an overview on the polje of Minde. In a second plan, Aire mountain emerges, and in the distance, to the northeast quadrant, is S. Mamede plateau.
Depression – landform sunken or depressed below the surrounding area.
Fault –cracks in the Earth's crust where movement occurs on at least one side.
Polje – limestone relief form consisting of an elongated and long depression generally flat bottom. Often it has a very steep slope corresponding to a fault. In rainy periods it often becomes a temporary pond.
