Nea Sparti (Greek: Νέα Σπάρτη, before 1928: Βουδωρίνα – Voudorina),[1] was a village in Kozani Regional Unit, Macedonia, Greece. It was part of the community of Tsotyli.
Voudorina was populated by Greek speaking Muslim Vallahades.[2][3] The 1920 Greek census recorded 177 people in the village, and 150 inhabitants (30 families) were Muslim in 1923.[4] Following the Greek–Turkish population exchange, Greek refugee families in Voudorina were from Asia Minor (22) in 1926.[4] The 1928 Greek census recorded 89 village inhabitants.[4] In 1928, the refugee families numbered 23 (86 people).[4] The village was abolished on 7 April 1951.[5]
