It is located seven km south west of Karlovasi and a bit to the south of Ydrousa. The name derives from the first person that moved to the area, a shepherd by the name of Konstantinos Kontos from the village of Platanos. He settled in the area in 1750. It is surrounded by green hills and it's invisible from the sea. The residents are occupied in agriculture and especially olives and vines while earlier they were also cultivating tobacco.
Its
highest ever-recorded population was recorded in the 1940 census, 642
people.
