Plikati

Plikati (Greek: Πληκάτι, Albanian: Plikat, Aromanian: Plikati) is a village in the municipal unit of Mastorochoria, Ioannina regional unit, Greece.

The village is situated at the foot of the Grammos mountains, at 1,240 m elevation, close to the Albanian border.

[2] Plikati is an old village, with a church dating from the 16th century.

It is one of the villages of the Epirus region in Greece which are inhabited by Arvanites (Christian Albanians).

[6] Due to overpopulation, poverty and raids by Muslim Albanians from the nearby Kolonjë region (located today in Albania) in the 19th century, many of its inhabitants moved away and founded new villages in the area around Florina (Belkameni and Negovani)[8][2] and Larissa (Kazaklar).
