History
The modern village resulted from the merger of two previous settlements, Palaiovrysi (Παλαιόβρυση) and Karytsa (Καρύτσα), around the time of the Fall of Constantinople in 1453. Local tradition has it that some inhabitants later left to escape pirate attacks, and founded the village of Milies on Mount Pelion. Archaeological excavations in the nearby Lavrentis hill have shown the site to have been inhabited since Antiquity, with remains from the Classical and the Hellenistic periods discovered.
