Life

Mordziol received his doctorate in Gießen in 1908 (on the younger tertiary and the diluvium of the part of the Neuwied basin on the right bank of the Rhine ). He was a teacher in Vallendar near Koblenz.

In 1908 he found evidence of a forerunner of the Rhine 34 million years ago, which he named Vallendar river system after a suburb of Koblenz (characterized by white, quartz-containing gravel, which originated in the Vosges ).
