History

Originally, the village was located 2 km north, at the Palaiochoria ("old village") site. Its Ottoman name was Delimosluk (Ντελίμοσλουκ) which was eventually corrupted to Delimis (Ντελίμις). The new village was founded in 1922 and renamed to Delitio (Δελήτιο). Due to the benefaction of the shipping magnate Eugenios Eugenidis, who provided for the village's water supply, it was later given its current name.

gollark: Also, my modpack download library (forked from another one but I basically rewrote it) works quite well; it's even got progress bars.
gollark: There's a *Lua* x86 emulator...
gollark: And probably horribly insecure, considering.
