History

A segment of the Roman-era road Via Egnatia is found in the village with the toponym Arnautski Pat, stemming from Arnaut, the Ottoman Turkish rendering for Albanians, and suggests either direct linguistic contact with Albanians or the former presence of an assimilated Albanian community.[1] Rotino is attested in the Ottoman defter of 1467/68 as a village in the vilayet of Manastir. A part of the inhabitants attested bore typical Albanian anthroponyms, such as Gjon and Gjergj.[2]
