Jat

The people lived chiefly on holcus, and a narcotic called "jat," made by pounding the tender twigs of a tree of the same name.

When one of the Jat chiefs seated himself upon it, the story goes, it cracked, and blood flowed from the fracture.

Though standing in the midst of a Jat neighbourhood, the fort was first garrisoned by Gujars, and took the name of Gujrat.

Why, they did it even to the twice-born Brahmans, let alone a Jat.
