Skopia, Florina

Skopia (Σκοπιά, before 1928: Άνω Νεβόλιανη - Ano Nevoliani ) is a village in Florina Regional Unit, Macedonia, Greece.

Philologist André Mazon was in Ano Nevolani. In 1917, the village had 1300 people and composed of 230 Christian houses and 60 Turkish houses. Mazon wrote that the Christian population due to Bulgarian efforts were Exarchists until the village came under Greek governance, thereafter the children began learning Greek at school, but did not use the language among themselves. The Turks of Ano Nevolani were Turkicized Albanians, the adults knew Albanian and the young only Turkish.

The Greek census (1920) recorded 1520 people in the village and in 1923 there were 350 inhabitants (or 59 families) who were Muslim. Following the Greek-Turkish population exchange, in 1926 within Ano Nevoliani there were 3 refugee families from East Thrace and 22 refugee families from Asia Minor. The Greek census (1928) recorded 1478 village inhabitants. In 1928, there were 20 refugee families (121 people). The village mosque was demolished in 1929.
