Hasilor Hundred, also known as Hasler Hundred, was a hundred in the county of Dorset, England.

A map of "the ancient county of Dorset in 1834, showing the Liberties, Hundreds and Boroughs" is to be found in Wikimedia. Unfortunately the print is too small to make it worthwhile reproducing the map here. Many of the hundreds had detached parts.

From Wikipedia

"A hundred is a geographic division formerly used in England, Wales, South Australia and some parts of the United States, to divide a larger region into smaller administrative divisions; similar divisions were made in Denmark, Southern Schleswig, Sweden, Finland, Estonia and Norway."

Hundreds were replaced by Registration Districts or Poor Law Unions between 1837 and 1850, and then by Rural and Urban Districts and Municipal Boroughs in 1894.
