Traditionally, many English towns had an official called a "Town Crier", whose job was to stand in public and shout, or "cry" official announcements.
Often, he would attract attention by ringing a hand bell and shouting "Hear Ye, Hear Ye"
"Ye" is an archaic form of "you", so Hear Ye just meant "I want you to hear this", or "Listen Up!"
The custom survives in many places, especially in towns which attract a lot of tourists.

yes. You can check the related link to see the definition.***Added by another user***No, it's not a word. "Ye" is a corruption of "Thee" originally spelled in old English with a runic letter called a thorn þ.When the printing press came to England they did not have runic characters, so typesetters substituted the letter Y.so it's not "Hear ye, hear ye" it's "Here thee, hear thee", or "The olde shoppe" not "Ye olde shoppe".
