The ancient name of this village is Trouloti, and thus is rendered in Venetian documentation and censuses. In Ottoman register of 1671 it is not quoted, but it appears again in 1834 (census of Pashley) with its current name. In census of1881 is also recorded as Tourloti belonging to then municipality of Partira.
The name of village emanated from its panoramic position, at the top of the last hill range that begins from Tefeli, kefalochori of Asterousia municipality. In the wider region of the village many archaeological artifacts have been found from cultivators, while the impetuous flow of water and rainfalls have unearthed ancient graves which get covered again under mud or are taken away by the powerful flow of the river.
