The village mentioned as Kalafatlu in the Biga Brigade Map of 1530 is actually the Old Kalafatlı village. Current occupants of Kalafat know the exact location of it and in fact it was much closer to the Trojan plain than the current village. It is not clear why Old Kalafat was abandoned. Today’s Kalafat is in the southwest of the Troy Museum and it was founded by the Bulgarian immigrants who migrated in 1928.
