==Etymology==
The etymology of this Italian word is unclear. The Italian Treccani dictionary gives two derivations:〔("Serraglio" ), in ''Treccani: Vocabolario on line''. Rome: Istituto della Enciclopedia Italiana. (in Italian) Accessed May 2013.〕
one from Turkish ''saray'', from Persian ''sarai'' (), meaning ''palace'', or the enclosed courts for the wives and concubines of the harem of a house or palace, the other (in the sense of enclosure for wild animals) from Late Latin: ''ラテン語:serraculum'', derived from ''serare'', to close, which comes from ''sera'',〔("sĕra", entry from Lewis & Short ). Latin Word Study Tool, ''Perseus''. Accessed May 2013.〕 a door-bar.〔Macdonald, A.M. (ed.) (1972) ''Chambers Twentieth Century Dictionary'' London: Chambers ISBN 055010206X〕
