The history of the village:
According to the archaeological finds of the area, the area was inhabited since the prehistoric years. It was an ancient city that belonged to the kingdom of Tamassos in which the ancient deities Artemis, Aphrodite, Apollo and Asklepios were worshipped.

During the Mediaeval times, the village of Pera Oreini is located under the same name. During the Frankish period and according to Leontios Machairas the "Pera" was a feud.

The name of the village:
The village of Pera Oreini is referred to by the same name in antiquity as a suburb of the ancient city of Tamasos because it was "Pera" (meaning beyond) the Pediou River. In the life of St. Heracleion (1st century AD) it is referred to as Peraton (Peran).

The definition of "Oreini" (meaning mountain) resulted from the fact that during the Frankish and Ottoman domination the village was located in the mountainous area, as it was called the mountainous region of Cyprus, to be distinguished from the lowlands. This determination has remained and it is used to distinguish the village geographically from other villages that have as first synthesis the word Pera, such as Pera Chorio and others.
