History

Kokkinopilos was captured by the Ottomans in 1442 was administered as a chiflik. The settlement is recorded as village and as "Kokinopulo" in the Ottoman Tahrir Defter number 101 dating to 1521. After a failed revolt against the Ottoman authorities during the Greek War of Independence, the village was captured and looted by Ottoman troops.

During the Balkan Wars the advancing Greek army entered the village in21 October 1912. During the Axis occupation of Greece the village was burned twice: in 1943 by the Italians and in 1944 by the Germans. The latter resulted to the scattering of the population of the village, in Katerini and Thessaloniki and to the establishment of Kalyvia as a permanent settlement.
