History

It is named after the Athamanians, an ancient Greek tribe that inhabited south-eastern Epirus and west Thessaly. At the 2011 local government reform, it merged with Agnanta, Melissourgoi, and Theodoriana to form the municipality of Central Tzoumerka. Alexis Tsipras (former prime minister of Greece) has paternal descent from Athamania through his father, Pavlos, as he was from Athamania in and was a well-off public works contractor.
