Hat or Hāṭ refers to “local markets” (where people used to go to buy and sell the necessaries of life).—Rural settlements [in medieval Bengal] contained, in addition to habitations, roads and paths, tanks with bathing ghāṭs which supplied water to the people, jungles serving the purpose of the pasture-land and canals forming a sort of drainage system for the village. There were arable land and fallow land, the latter being brought under cultivation with the gradual increase of population. Some of the villages had local markets or hāṭs where people used to go to buy and sell the necessaries of life.
