During the Ottoman period, the region saw the settlement of Anatolian groups including Evlad-ı Fatihan communities as well as Konyar and Yörük populations as part of Ottoman settlement policies in the Balkans.[3]
Important demographic information about the Karacaova region appears in the Ottoman population registers of 1831, which record villages and households in the district.[4]
A detailed study of the 1831 population records of the Karacaova / Karacaabad region was published by Hüsnü Yazıcı.[5]
