Syvota ((ギリシア語:Σύβοτα), before 1940: Μούρτος - ''Mourtos''〔(Name changes of settlements in Greece )〕) is a village and a former municipality in Thesprotia, Epirus, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Igoumenitsa, of which it is a municipal unit.〔(Kallikratis law ) Greece Ministry of Interior 〕 The population in 2011 was 875 for the village, and 2,640 for the municipal unit. The seat of the municipality was in Plataria. ==History== The earliest recorded inhabitants of the region are the Thesprotians, a Greek tribe of Epirus. In antiquity, the location was called Sybota and was the site of the Battle of Sybota. During the Middle Ages, Syvota, like the rest of Epirus, was part of the Byzantine Empire and the Despotate of Epirus. Under the Turks, it was called Mourtos. After nearly 500 years of Ottoman rule, Syvota joined Greece in 1913, following the Balkan Wars. The coastal village of Syvota ((アルバニア語:Murto) or ''Vola'') was home to Cham Albanians before 1944, when they were expelled for collaborating with the Axis Powers.〔Vickers, Miranda and Pettifer, James. ''The Albanian Question: Reshaping the Balkans''. I.B. Tauris, 2007, ISBN 1-86064-974-2, p. 238.〕 Today, Syvota town is a well-developed resort, owing largely to the numerous pristine beaches with clear waters located on several islets immediately offshore. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Syvota」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
