The area, like the whole of Epirus, has hardly been studied archaeologically, with the result that many historical elements remain unknown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, archaeological finds in the area and some unofficial historical evidence justify the view that Theodoriana are a historical continuation of the<strong> ancient city of Theodoria<\/strong> in the land of the Athamanes and its inhabitants are the first historically ascertained tribe that lived in the area. The historical course of the ancient city followed that of Epirus. The prosperity that Athamania experienced during the reign of Amynandros was violently interrupted with its total destruction in 167 BC by the Romans, it became a Roman province and fell into obscurity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regarding the origin of the name, the oldest historians speculate that it is due to the king of Athamania, Theodoros, without specifying the exact location of Theodoria. The younger researchers and historians place Theodoria in the Selios (Slavic word meaning village) site of the Theodorians. And it is unknown when the name change from Theodoria to Theodoriana took place<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-11 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-748x1024.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"748\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"5948\" src=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-748x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5948\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-748x1024.jpg 748w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-219x300.jpg 219w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-768x1052.jpg 768w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-1121x1536.jpg 1121w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-380x520.jpg 380w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-800x1096.jpg 800w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-1160x1589.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1.jpg 1212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd\u03ac-\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-768x1024.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"5944\" src=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd\u03ac-\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5944\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd\u03ac-\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd\u03ac-\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd\u03ac-\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-380x507.jpg 380w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd\u03ac-\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-800x1067.jpg 800w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a4\u03b1-\u03b2\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd\u03ac-\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1.jpg 975w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-\"><span id=\"the-period-of-the-turkish-rule\">The period of the Turkish Rule<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Turkish occupation begins in 1431 for Epirus, but not for Theodoriana and the other villages of Tzoumerka resist and achieve semi-independence and self-government.

After setting fire to the villages of Sirrako, Kalarrites, Pramanta and Melissourgi, the Turks arrived on August 2 in Theodoriana, which was empty of inhabitants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Greek chieftains led by Gogos Bakolas decide to give battle at the Stavros passage. The first attack on August 4 is followed by the big attack the next day. The Turks are six thousand and the Greeks about five hundred. The Turks do not manage to pass the rassage of Stavros and are forced to retreat counting significant losses. The victory at the passage of Stavros in Theodoriana was decisive for the development of the Revolution, because it prevented the Turks from crossing to Sterea Ellada and the Peloponnese and gave the opportunity to strengthen the revolution there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5942\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-260x195.jpg 260w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-380x285.jpg 380w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1-1160x870.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1-\u0398\u03b5\u03bf\u03b4\u03ce\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-\"><span id=\"the-rebellion-of-kostilata\">The rebellion of Kostilata<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Liberation for Theodoriana came on June 24, 1881 and the reconstruction of the village began. After the annexation, however, a problem arose with the ownership status of the Kostilata meadow. After the departure of the Turks, the meadow was sold by the Turks Mustafabei and Sukerevei to the landowner brothers Nikos and Giorgos Antonopoulos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Antonopouli brothers rented the Kostilata meadow to the chief shepherd Georgios Hatzaras. The Turks took it as conquerors, so now with the liberation it temporarily belonged to them. The reaction of the residents was reasonable, but the big landowner persisted, as of course all the Greek landowners who appropriated entire lands after the departure of the Turks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dispute spread, and the village armed with weapons, khajaras, axes, and sticks faced the military detachment accompanying the 2,000 sheep of the cheliga Hajara to graze in the Kostilata meadow. Finally, the two sides came to an agreement and on July 25, 1883, a contract was signed that transferred Kostilata to 131 residents of Theodoriana. Today the Kostilata meadow is managed by the<strong> Local Cooperative of the village<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kostilata is also known for its springs at an altitude of 1450 m. The bottling plant is located nearby and the waters are bottled directly from the springs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Source: <\/strong>The information in this section is

With the ringing of the bell, all the residents gather in the square to dance the traditional \u201cdouble-barrel\u201d dance. The dance has its roots in the Ottoman Empire and the name <strong>diplokagelo<\/strong> is due to the <strong>kagelia<\/strong> (i.e. the serpentine turns) that the dancers make during the dance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dance forms two lines. The order of the dance is determined by an expert for the occasion and the village priest is the first to dance, in order to underline the sanctity of the fiest. The women are in the first row are with their arms crossed and behind them the men, while with one voice they sing and dance, the song of \u201c<strong>Kostilata<\/strong>\u201c, known in Panhellenic with its variations. The song refers to the Kostilata meadow and recalls the struggle and uprising of the Theodoriana habitants against the landowners, which had bought it from the Turks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"838\" src=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-1024x838.jpg\" alt=\"\u0397 \u03b8\u03ad\u03b1 \u03b1\u03c0\u03cc \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1\" class=\"wp-image-5984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-1024x838.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-300x246.jpg 300w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-768x629.jpg 768w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-1536x1258.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-380x311.jpg 380w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-800x655.jpg 800w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1-1160x950.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/\u0397-\u03b8\u03ad\u03b1-\u03b1\u03c0\u03cc-\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd-\u039a\u03c9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Theodoriana is a village in the prefecture of Arta and is nestled on the slopes of Eastern Tzoumerka&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6083,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_wp_convertkit_post_meta":{"form":"-1","landing_page":"0","tag":"0","restrict_content":"0"},"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[207,23,21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tzoumerka-en","category-featured-en","category-featured","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6007"}],"version-history":[{"count":21,"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6007\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6202,"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6007\/revisions\/6202"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6083"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6007"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6007"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epirusexplorer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
