  This crater is situated on the rim of a much larger crater
  in Terra Cimmeria, located in the Southern highland region of Mars.

o Rhythmic Stratigraphy

  This observation represents a particularly good exposure of rhythmic
  stratigraphy within a crater in southern Arabia Terra.

o Lots of Layers in Terby Crater
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_021942_1520

  Terby Crater is interesting to scientists because of its apparent
  modification by liquid water.
