Buchino

In 1891 Georgi Strezov wrote about the village:

"Buchino, 3 hours from Jumaya, towards the border, is surrounded by small forest, which is well preserved, because it was said anyone who dared to cut down a branch of this forest died. 75 houses, 360 Bulgarians and 75 Turks."^[2]

At the outbreak of the Balkan War in 1912, two people from Buchino were volunteers in the Macedonian-Edirne militia.^[3]

By 1900, according to the famous statistics of Vasil Kanchov ("Macedonia. Ethnography and Statistics"), the population of Buchino (Bair Koi) numbered 517 people, of whom 442 were Bulgarian Christians and 75 Turks.^[4]
