Nea Kallikrateia was established after the refugee crisis in 1922, mainly by the residents who came from Kallikrateia (today Mimarsinan, a neighbourhood of Büyükçekmece) in Eastern Thrace and set up in the area, where the metochi of the Xenophontos Monastery of Mount Athos existed and it was called “Stomion”. Many testimonies report that it was inhabited by the prehistoric years; however, they are not confirmed. Further, Christian refugees from Silata (today Sille, Konya) established the village of Nea Silata.^{[citation needed]}
