''India before Europe''. Cambridge University Press, p270. {{ISBN|978-0-521-80904-7}}</ref>
:"... (North India) contained large numbers of non-elite tillers. In the Punjab and the western Gangetic Plains, convention defined the Rajput's non-elite counterpart as a Jat. Like many similar titles used elsewhere, this was not so much a caste name as a broad designation for the man of substance in rural terrain. … To be called Jat has in some regions implied a background of pastoralism, though it has more commonly been a designation of non-servile cultivating people".<ref name=sbayly-p37>{{cite book|last=Bayly|first=Susan|title=Caste, Society and Politics in India from the Eighteenth Century to the Modern Age|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=HbAjKR_iHogC&pg=PA37|accessdate=15 October 2011|year=2001|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-0-521-79842-6|page=37}}</ref> Mostly Jaat are knowns as zamindar.
