The area of ​​the settlement, in antiquity, was part of the kingdom of Nestor, the ancient Pylos. Today's village, in the past and until the middle of the 19th century, consisted of two separate settlements: Ano Papoulion (the newest village) and Kato Papoulion (the oldest village), which were about 800 meters apart. In 1845, the previous two settlements were administratively abolished and incorporated into a new settlement, which, after the dissolution of Kato Papouli, was essentially the remaining settlement of Ano Papouli. The resulting single village was now renamed Papoulias (1p). The official name of the village, from 1940 until today, is now referred to as Pappoulia (with 2 p)
Second Venetian rule

Main entry: Navarino Territory

During the Second Venetian occupation, the two settlements were referred to as Apann Papugli [6] and Catu Papugli [6] or Papaglia. [7] The two settlements are also mentioned in various censuses of the Venetian Providers of the Most Peaceful Republic of Venice, which took place during the thirty years (1683 / 84-1715), during which the Venetians occupied the Peloponnese, through their acquisition (Stato da Mar ), which is also known as the Kingdom of Morea (1688-1715). The villages of Apann Papugli and Catu Papugli belonged in 1689 to the province of Navarino (Territorio di Navarin), which was one of the four provinces then divided by the Methoni district. Fanariou, Arcadia province, Navarino province and Methoni province). Based on the Venetian Corner census of 1689, the two villages had: Apann Papugli with 7 inhabitants and Katu Papugli with 25 inhabitants, respectively. [6]

Second Ottoman rule

Main entry: Kazas Navarinou

After 1715, when the Turks expelled the Venetians from Moria and returned, they renamed the Barony of Methoni to Vilaeti of Arcadia. During the period when the wider area of ​​Pylia was under Ottoman occupation (1715-1821), the two villages of Papouli belonged to Kazas Navarinou according to the publication of the American School of Classical Studies in Athens entitled A Historical and Economic Geography of Ottoman Greece: The Southwestern Morea in the 18th Century, after the recapture of the areas of Moria by the Turks, the area of ​​Navarino, that is, of Pylia, was another part of the Ottoman (defter) cadastre. The area of ​​Ano Papouli referred to Ottoman Turkish as Papla or Mustafa Aga and the area of ​​Kato Papouli and Gyfada as Papla or Aga. [8]

Administrative history

Ano Papoulion [9] and Kato Papoulion [10] were originally annexed to the old Municipality of Koryfassi in 1835, [11] [12] based in Iklena (now Iklaina). Only 5 years later, in 1840, [13] these two settlements were detached from the Municipality of Koryfassi, which was then abolished and annexed to the old Municipality of Pylos [14] or the Municipality of Pyli, as mentioned at the time. In 1845 [15] Ano Papoulion and Kato Papoulion are abolished, as separate settlements, and from their union arises the new settlement called Papoulias [16] which is also attached to the Municipality of Pylos, where it remained until 1912, that the municipality was abolished. The village is mentioned, in 1853, also as Ano Papoulias and Kato Papoulias in the second volume of "Ellinika" by Iakovos Rizos Ragavis, as settlements of the Municipality of Pylos of Pylia Province with a population of 40 and 30 inhabitants respectively, based on the 1851 census. [17] The seat of the Municipality of Pylos at that time, based on the same source, was the town of Pylos, (Neokastron) and Kalivia. In 1912 Papoulias was annexed to the Ikleni Community, [18] [19] based in Iklena. In 1940 [20] the name of the village is corrected to Pappoulia (with 2 p). In 1948 [21] Pappoulia was detached from the Community of Iklaina and annexed as its seat to the Community of Pappoulia, [22] to which 8 years later, in 1956, [23] the settlement of Platanos was annexed. The village remained as a settlement and seat of the Community of Pappoulia, from 1956 to 1997, when then, in the context of the changes that occurred in the local government, through the "Kapodistrias" plan, Pappoulia and Platanos were subject to the abolished Municipality of Pylos, [ 24] [25] until 2010. From 2011, after the new changes of the "Kallikratis" plan, Pappoulia now belong to the new Municipality of Pylos - Nestoros. [26] [27] This municipality was established with the Kallikratis Program with the amalgamation of the pre-existing municipalities of Koroni, Methoni, Papaflessa, Pylos, Nestoros and Chiliochoria. Today, Pappoulia is the seat of the Local Community of Pappoulia of the Municipality of Pylos-Nestoros, [4] to which Platanos also belongs.

Residents

The settlement, based on the 2011 census, has 103 permanent residents, who are mainly employed in various agricultural tasks.

Buildings - events - sights
The Holy Temple of Agioi Anargyroi.

Apart from the traditional houses, there is the church of the village, the Holy Temple of Agioi Anargyroi, which belongs to the Holy Diocese of Messinia. There is also the oldest Holy Church of the Assumption (cemetery church). From the oldest village, Kato Papoulion, only its old church as the chapel of Agios Ioannis the Forerunner survives today. In the village, the Cultural Association of Messinian Papoulias also holds various events and cultural events. The sights of the village include the nearby Tomb of Pappoulia.

Tomb of Pappoulia

The Middle Helladic Tomb of Pappoulia or Tomb of Papouli, at Ag. Ioannis Papoulion, excavated during the period 1954-1955 by Spyridonas Marinatos. The reason for the excavation of the tomb was the intention of the then president of the community Miltiadou Zacharopoulos and his other fellow villagers who wanted to build a church in honor of St. John whose It also has the rural location of the wider area. The tomb, which Sp. Marinatos estimates may have been a polyandry of the dead who fell in battle, contained burials in pithos [43] arranged radially to its periphery and parallel to the ground. Excavations followed under the supervision of George St. Korre in 1978 and 1980. Based on the findings of 1954 and 1980, the mound appears to have had two construction phases. However, a special construction feature is considered to be the horseshoe-shaped construction in the center of the tumulus, which researchers believe is probably a cenotaph. [44] [45] [46]
