SUMMARY
Proti belongs to the Princes' Islands complex, being the closest one to Constantinople (Istanbul). In the middle of the 18th century the island was almost deserted, only to become re-inhabited in the 19th century. Nowadays, Proti’s Greek Orthodox community is comprised of very few permanent residents.
