Achlada (Greek: Αχλάδα; Bulgarian and Macedonian: Крушоради) is a village in the Florina regional unit, Western Macedonia, Greece.
History
[edit]The settlement was mentioned in a defter of 1626–1627, under the name of Krushorad, and was described as having 61 non-Muslim households.[2]
The Russian slavist Victor Grigorovich recorded Krushorade (Крушораде) as mainly Bulgarian village in 1845.[3] Gyorche Petrov in 1986 notes that the village had 20 Bulgarian Exarchist and 40 Bulgarian Patriarchist households.[4] Vasil Kanchov's 1900 survey recorded 650 Bulgarian Christians in the village.[5] Later in 1905, Secretary of the Bulgarian Exarchate Dimitar Mishev (writing as "Brancoff") documented 760 Bulgarian Exarchists in the village.[6]
The paternal grandparents of Nikola Gruevski, former Prime Minister of Republic of Macedonia (now North Macedonia), were born here, including his grandfather Nikolaos Grouios.[7]
In 1926, the name of the village was changed from Κρουσοράτη (Krousoráti) to Αχλάδα (Achláda).[8]
In fieldwork done by anthropologist Riki Van Boeschoten in late 1993, Achlada was populated by Slavophones. The Macedonian language was spoken by people over 60, mainly in private.[9]
