Dragotina (Greek: Δραγωτινά) is a village in the southern part of the island of Corfu.
This is a village invisible from the sea in order to be protected from the intruders in the past.
This is one version of the story, the other is that it was named after the village Dragoti in Thesprotia, from a place where a great number of people had to move to Corfu.
According to a different notion the village’s name means ‘dragatis’ translated as rural police.
Famous surnames of the 16th century are Vlachopoulos, Grantos in 1507, Vamvakas, Gardikiotis, Therianos, Kontomaris, Mihalitzis, Vlassis, Melahrinos, Smoilis, and Arvanitis.
