Ottoman Empire
According to Academician Ivan Duridanov, the etymology of the name is from the original patronymic of ishti, which comes from the personal name Dobrol 

In the fifteenth century, the village had 140 names of households that were named. Families from Dobrolishta, along with Slimnitsa and Omotsko, settled in 1791 and in the Nevrokop village of Kovachevitsa, where they formed the so-called Arnautska neighborhood. They are engaged in construction and founded the Kovachevitsa architectural-building school. In the beginning of the 20th century, the entire Christian population of Dobrolishta was under the influence of the Patriarchate of Constantinople, but after the Ilinden uprising in the beginning of 1904 it was under the influence of the Bulgarian Exarchate. The same year, Ottoman authorities did not allow teacher A. Naumov from Aposkep to open a Bulgarian school in the village. In October 1906, Ottoman forces succeeded in killing the voivode Nikola Dobrolitski and two of his chetniks in Dobrolishta 

Also in 1906, Dobrolista was attacked by Greek forces led by Nikolaos Platanias (Lahtaras). Greece
At the outbreak of the Balkan Wars in 1912, two people from Dobrolishta were volunteers in the Macedonian-Adrianople Corps. During the Balkan wars, the village was occupied by Greek troops and remained in Greece after the Balkan Wars. Borivoje Milojevic, a Serbian geographer, wrote in his book Južna Makedonija (1921) that Dobrolishta had 30 Slavic Christian houses and 40 Turkish houses. The Greek census (1920) recorded 434 people in the village and in 1923 there were 198 inhabitants (or 140 families) who were Muslim. Following the Greek-Turkish population exchange, in 1926 within Dovrolitsa there were 39 refugee families from Pontus. The Greek census (1928) recorded 455 village inhabitants. There were 40 refugee families (139 people) in 1928. In 1926, Dobrolishta is changed to Kalohorion which translates to good village. During the Second World War, Kalochori was in the Italian occupation zone and a subdivision of the Central Macedonian-Bulgarian Committee was established in Kalochori, headed by the Dobrolitski family. The village suffered from the Italian detachments. On May 4, 1945, Kalochori was pillaged by the Greek detachment of Andonios Amanatidis, many women and men are abused. 13 children from Kalochori, are moved out of the country by the communist authorities as refugees to the Eastern Bloc during the Greek Civil War. There are nine political killings in the village during the Greek Civil War. The village of Tsartsista was eventually abandoned around the 1970s and its inhabitants were relocated to Kalochori. Kalochori typically produces tobacco, wheat, and lentils in its surrounding fields. Historical figures
