A description is given of eight diapiric evaporite occurrences that most likely represent true piercement diapirs in the Eastern Prebetic domain. The history of emplacement of these bodies is evaluated and it is concluded that intrusion most likely took place in two distinct episodes during which tensional regimes reigned in the area. The older episode caused diapiric rise to Lower Cretaceous levels, probably in the form of salt walls above basement faults. The younger episode of active diapirism took place subsequent to deposition of Tortonian sediments and prior to 7.4 Ma. lamproite volcanism in the area.
