==History== Yalıntaş was a colony of the Republic of Genoa in the Middle Ages, famed for its high quality kaolinite. After Italians left the settlement, the town became a Greek town both during the Byzantine and the Ottoman periods. After the population exchange between Greece and Turkey agreement in 1923, Greeks were replaced by Turks. In 1996, the settlement was declared a seat of township.
