A Supersequence (or Megasequenece) is a geological term to describe a very large group (sequence) of rock formations. The rocks which make up a Supersequence have generally been deposited over millions if not hundreds of millions of years. The stratigraphic package, as it is known, is normally related to a distinct phase of plate motion (see plate tectonics).
