Indian subcontinent
in Punjab, a clan of Jats and Ramgharias (ਗਿੱਲ or گل), it may be derived from the Punjabi word 'gil' meaning "moisture". According to oral history, the progenitor of the clan was a man named Gill. Shergill, Virk, and Sidhu are descendant clans of the Gill Jat clan. The name is also used by the Chuhra (Balmiki and Bhangi) caste, including the Mirasis. According to bhāt (bardic) records, the Gill Jat clan claims origin to an abandoned child found by a raja in a moist, jungle area of the wilds whom was being attended by a lion. This tale is recounted in colonial-era literature. Connections to historic and contemporary Iranic peoples, such as the ancient Gelae tribe of the Scythians and the present-day Gilaki people, and locations such as Gilan, have been suggested. There were half a million Gill Jats recorded in the 1881 British India census. The Gill Jats had a marriage custom which involved digging a hole in a muddy spring.
