Ezeritai

Ezeritai: Tribe of Slavs in the Peloponnesos (qq.v.) in the Taygetos Mountains.

The Ezeritai revolted during the reign of Romanos I (q.v.) and were defeated. However, unlike other Slavic tribes who were assimilated, they continued to maintain their independence up to the conquest of the Peloponnesos by the Ottomans (q.v.).
