Portuguese term or phrase: povoados das moradeiras
'Esta dinâmica conduz nos séculos seguintes à desestruturação do modelo imperial de ocupação do território, começando a surgir formas alternativas nos padrões de povoamento, tendendo ao final das estruturas unifamiliares e ressurgindo as concentrações comunitárias, por vezes reocupando sítios pré-romanos (O caso dos povoados fluviais, dos povoados ocultos, dos povoados de altura e das moradeiras).'

I would like to point out that this is in Portugal, NOT Brazil.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Asker: Thanks Nick! I think I'll use settlement in this context, as a hamlet seems to be smaller, but you've got the general idea. Thanks!

Asker: "Settlement" é a tradução para os povoados. Aqui tenho de distinguir as moradeiras, senão torna-se confuso...

Asker: Obrigada!
