With a population of 3,500[1][2] as of the mid to late 750s BC, Pakat has the second greatest population of Sri Raji's major communities. Partially due to predatory fauna and carnivorous plants making farming difficult, food is in short supply in Pakat. Poverty, disease, and general hard times reflect common themes in the daily lives of many people in Pakat[3].

The decrepit Temple of Ratri sits at Pakat's heart. Although the faithful believe the clergy there serve Ratri, they actually venerate Siva, performing their secret worship in an underground temple complex hidden beneath Ratri's temple[4].
