Georgitsa was inhabited by Aromanians.[2][3] During the 1960s it became deserted and its population moved to the new village of Agioi Theodoroi, founded by people from Georgitsa and two other nearby villages.[4][5][6] Georgitsa was placed under the direct control of the municipality of Grevena in 1997 and later the village was abolished on 9 May 2011.[1]
