Kivotos

Kivotos (Greek: Κιβωτός, before 1927: Κρίφτσι – Kriftsi)[2] is a village and a community of the Grevena municipality.

[5] Kriftsi was populated by Greek speaking Muslim Vallahades.

[6][7][8] The 1920 Greek census recorded 897 people in the village, and 897 inhabitants (187 families) were Muslim in 1923.

[9] Following the Greek–Turkish population exchange, Greek refugee families in Kriftsi were from Asia Minor (150) and Pontus (191) in 1926.

[9] After their arrival, the refugees demolished the village mosque and constructed a small church at the site, later replaced with the present church of Agios Georgios.
