History
The village was founded by the Ottoman Turks and named after its mostly Bulgarian population.[2] It was ceded to Bulgaria in 1915[3] along with the rest of the lower Evros (Maritsa) valley, but following the 1919 Treaty of Neuilly it became part of Greece. As a result its Bulgarian and Turkish population was exchanged with Greek refugees, mainly from today's Turkey.
