Tsarista was a mixed village and a part of its population were Greek speaking Muslim Vallahades.[4] The 1920 Greek census recorded 95 people in the village, and 45 inhabitants (10 families) were Muslim in 1923.[5] Following the Greek–Turkish population exchange, Greek refugee families in Tsarista were from Asia Minor (1) and Pontus (9) in 1926.[5] The 1928 Greek census recorded 98 village inhabitants.[5] In 1928, the refugee families numbered 10 (41 people).[5]
