Kapetan (Chieftain) Georgios Doitsinis A portrait of Doitsinis. Native name Γεώργιος Δοϊτσίνης Born c. 1880s Matsikovo, Salonika Vilayet, Ottoman Empire (Now Evzonoi, Greece) Allegiance Kingdom of Greece Branch HMC Conflicts Macedonian Struggle

**Georgios Doitsinis** ([Greek](/source/Greek_language): Γεώργιος Δοϊτσίνης; [Bulgarian](/source/Bulgarian_language): Георги Дойчинов) was a [Slavophone Greek](/source/Slavophone_Greek) chieftain of the [Greek Struggle for Macedonia](/source/Greek_Struggle_for_Macedonia).

Doitsinis was born in the 1880s in Matsikovo (renamed [Evzonoi](/source/Evzonoi) in 1927) of [Kilkis](/source/Kilkis_(regional_unit)). He was the grandson of the [Kodjabashi](/source/Kodjabashis) of Matsikovo Georgios Doitsinis, who had successfully defended several early [Bulgarian](/source/Bulgarians) activities.[1] He was one of the first revolutionaries to set up an armed group in the areas of [Bogdanci](/source/Bogdanci) and [Gevgelija](/source/Gevgelija), cooperating with the *Greek Center of [Thessaloniki](/source/Thessaloniki)* since the autumn of 1904. His group consisted of local [Macedonian](/source/Macedonians_(Greeks)) and [Cretan](/source/Crete) soldiers. He cooperated with chieftains [Michael Sionidis](/source/Michael_Sionidis), L. Papamalekos and Em. Katsigaris.

Georgios Doitsinis (second highlighted from the right) with other chieftains in [Giannitsa](/source/Giannitsa) including [Gonos Yiotas](/source/Gonos_Yotas) (highlighted far left).

After the arrest of multiple Greek revolutionaries in Bogdanci and the dissolution of the group of Em. Katsigaris, Doitsinis was one of the most powerful Greek military presences in [Central Macedonia](/source/Central_Macedonia). He managed with his group to defend the [Bulgarian](/source/Bulgarians) [Komitadji](/source/Komitadji) attacks near [Axios](/source/Axios%2C_Thessaloniki), from Karasouli (now [Polykastro](/source/Polykastro)) to [Valandovo](/source/Valandovo) and from [Gevgelija](/source/Gevgelija) to the mountain range of [Kerkini](/source/Belasica).[2]
