Hiko, Nevada
Hiko is a small, agrarian community in the Tonopah Basin on State Route 318 in Lincoln County, Nevada, United States. It is a census-designated place, with a population of 119 at the 2010 census. Demographics Description The first permanent settlement at Hiko was made in 1853. Hiko was the county seat of Lincoln County from 1867 to 1871 and a few hundred residents lived nearby, due largely to silver mines in the area.

''Hime'' may also indicate ''feminine'' or simply ''small'' when used together with other words, such as ''Hime-gaki'' (a low line of hedge). ''Hime'' is commonly seen as part of a Japanese female divinity's name, such as Toyotama-hime. The Kanji applied to transliterate ''Hime'' are 比売 or 毘売 rather than 姫. The masculine counterpart of ''Hime'' is ''Hiko'' (彦, 比古 or 毘古,) which is seen as part of Japanese male gods' names, such as Saruta-hiko.
