Place of birth Explanation: Why don't we go with the less disturbing term then? Simplified as it may sound, it can always cover village, settlement, town, agglomeration etc. Most humbly, K. |

Reference: No exact translation Reference information: There isn't a good translation of οικισμός as far as I know, i.e. an equivalent term that has just the same degree of generality. Some dictionaries give "settlement", but that has other connotations. You might try "community", although I don't much like that either. |
