Food-stuffs for the towns were apparently brought only to the gates, while workshop and bazaar occupied, to a large extent at least, their own special streets within¹⁹. Thus there was a fishmonger's village at a gate of Sāvatthī¹, greengrocery is sold at the four gates of Uttara-Pañchāla², and venison at the cross-roads (\*siṅghāṭaka\*) outside Benares³.
