The Souliotes, who had left Souli after the agreement with Turkish Albanian Pasha, had been fortified in the Zalongos Monastery. The deal was defeated by Ali Pasha, who chastised the Souliotes. The women of Soulioti, in order not to be captured, chose to fall with their children on the cliff of Zalongos dancing. In memory of their self-sacrifice, the Zalongos Monument, erected by sculptor George Zongolopoulos, was erected.
