Kastanitsa
Kastanitsa ((ギリシア語:Καστάνιτσα)) is a village in Arcadia in Greece, on the southern slope of Mount Parnon. It is noted for its production of chestnuts, from which it takes its name, and for formerly being a majority Tsakonian-speaking settlement.
==History==
Kastanitsa is first mentioned in writing in 1293, but the settlement is thought to be nearly two centuries older, founded by Tsakones fleeing the rule of Slavic tribes that had invaded the Peloponnese. According to Kastaniot tradition, the village was founded by two families called Pentalonas and Bezenikos.〔Λάτσης, Σωτήρης.

A Byzantine fort called ''Koutoupou'' was placed on the nearby hill of ''Pyrgos'' while the restored Byzantine monarchy warred with the Frankish lords of the Peloponnese to recover territory lost in the wake of the Fourth Crusade.〔Καστάνιτσα Αρκαδίας Η ιστορία και ομορφιές του διατηρητέου οικισμού, p. 1〕
Further documentary evidence is scant until the eighteenth century. In 1788, a French traveller named Villehouson wrote that Kastanitsa "...has four hundred houses." In 1808, an Englishman, Martin Leek, reported that "This was once a city of great note." On 21 July 1821 the inhabitants proclaimed their independence from Turkish rule from atop the old Byzantine tower and joined in the Greek struggle for independence.〔Καστάνιτσα Αρκαδίας Η ιστορία και ομορφιές του διατηρητέου οικισμού., p.2〕
