Everyone,
Aren't some of these "hamlets" still
used as postal addresses? In that sense, they still exist.
Also, in the West we have the phenomenon
of old rail infrastructure, such as watering
stations, that were named. A good example is
Adamana near the Petrified Forest. There are
still a couple of houses there. Would will still consider those "hamlets"?
