The Jat are large tribal grouping, who are found throughout the Punjab region of Pakistan and India.[1] A significant numbers of Jats began to convert to Islam, from the middle ages onwards.
Origin
The Hindu mythological account in Deva Samhita traces the origin of Jat people to Shiva's locks (see Origin of Jat people from Shiva's Locks).[2][3] Historians derive "Jat" from Getae, "Ahir" from "Avar", "Saka" from "Scythii", "Gujjar" and "Khatri" from "Khazar", "Thakur" and "Tarkhan (Punjab)" from "Tukharian", "Saurashtra" from "Saura Matii" or "Sarmatians", "Sisodia" from "Sassanian", "Madra" from "Medes", "Trigartta" from "Tyri Getae" and "Sulika" from "Seleucids". "Massa" means "grand" or "big" in old Iranian - the language of the Scythians.[4][5][6][7]
The earliest attestation of the Jat people is in a Pali inscription dated to AD 541 (as Jit).[8]
There are two main hypotheses, with general consensus amongst scholars on Indo-Scythian origin.[9] The origin of the Jat people is discussed in terms of native Indo-Aryan ancestry and an intrusive Indo-Scythian admixture on the other.
Authors postulating Indo-Scythian ancestry include Sir Alexander Cunningham, B.S. Dhillon, Sir John Marshall, Sir Mountstuart Elphinstone Grant Duff, Arthur Edward Barstow, James Tod and Bhim Singh Dahiya.[10][11][11][12][13] Authors emphasizing "indigenous" Indo-Aryan lineage include E. B. Havell, KR Qanungo, Sir Herbert Risley, C.V.Vaidya and Thakur Deshraj.[14][15][16][17][18][19]
A genetic study has been undertaken of the Jat people of the Indian States of Haryana and Punjab (Punjab region), where about 40% or more of the population are Jat people. The study involved a genealogical DNA test which examined single nucleotide polymorphisms (mutations in a single DNA "letter") on the Y chromosome (which occurs only in males). Jat people share many common haplotypes with German, Slavic, Baltic, Iranian, and Central Asian groups.[20] It found Jat people share only two haplotypes, one of which is also shared with the population of present-day Turkey, and have few matches with neighbouring Pakistani populations.[20] This haplotype shared between the two Jat groups may be part of an Indo-Aryan (or Indo-European) genetic contribution to these populations,[20] whereas the haplotypes shared with other Eurasian populations may be due to the contribution of Indo-European Scythian (Saka, Massagetae) or White Huns.[20]
Distribution
Historically, Muslim Jat clans predominated in western Punjab, in areas which now are found in Pakistan. Traditionally, the districts of Gujranwala, Shaikhupura, Lahore, Sialkot,Bahawalpur and Gujrat were seen as strongholds of the Jats. Major Jat clans, the Bajwa, Cheema, Chatha, Dudhra, Sandhu, Gill, Janjua Jatt,Ghuman, Kahloon, Dhillon, Dhodi, Gondal,Sidhu,Randhawa, Nanda,Bhatti ,Noon, Waraich, and Jajja predominated in this region.Bhatti and Noonwould sometimes call themselves Rajputs, sometimes Jat.
In the Pothohar region, home to many tribes having a multiple identity. For example Dhamial, Langrial, Chhina and Bangial, would in some instances call themselves Rajputs, and other instances call themselves Jats. Although in Jhelum District, Jat identity was fairly strong, and these tribes tend to consider themselves as Jats.
In the Bar regions, i.e the plains between Ravi and Chenab rivers (the Sandal Bar, Kirana Bar and Neeli Bar), the term Jat referred to any nomadic pastoralist, and the Kharal, Wattu, Sials, Kathia and Johiya would sometimes call themselves Rajputs, sometomes Jat. The Waseer, Dhami and Wahiniwal clans were the only ones who only called themselves Jats. In the 19th Century, the British settled several Jats from central Punjab, including many from Amritsar, Gurdaspur and Jalandhar, into the Bar region, creating the modern canal colony districts of Faisalabad and Sahiwal.[21]
In south of Punjab, there were several Saraiki speaking Jat clans, such as the Jakhar, Khar, Daha, Dhandla, Makwal, Bohar, Ghallu, Kanju, Samtia and Sandhila.
