Circular Pattern: The settlements develop around lakes, tanks and the central part remains open for keeping the animals to protect them from wild animals.
T-shaped, Y-shaped, Cross-shaped or Cruciform Settlements: The T-shape settlements develop at tri-junctions, Y-shaped settlements emerge where two roads converge on the third and houses are built along these roads, cruciform settlements develop on the cross-roads and houses extend in all the four directions.
Linear Pattern: The houses are located along the road, railway line, river, canal edge of a valley, along a levee. Rectangular Pattern The settlements are located in plain areas or in wide inter montane valleys. The roads are rectangular and cut each other at right angles.
Star-like Pattern: These settlements develop where several roads converge and the houses are built along the roads.
