History
The ancient town Dystus was mentioned by the 4th century BC historian Theopompus. It is thought to have been founded by the Dryopians. During the 1950s, the power corporation of Greece established a steam power plant close to the lake Dystos at the city of Aliveri. That power plant used lake water for the cooling system.
