Harem (Turkish, from Arabic حرم ḥaram 'forbidden place; sacrosanct, sanctum', related to حريم ḥarīm 'a sacred inviolable place; female members of the family' and حرام ḥarām, 'forbidden; sacred') refers to the sphere of women in a usually polygynous household and their quarters which is enclosed and forbidden to men. It [originated] in the Near East and came to the Western world via the [Ottoman Empire]. The term serraglio (Italian from Persian sarāy "palace, enclosed courts") carries a similar meaning. In modern colloquial (and humorous) English, "harem" may denote a number of female followers of a [charismatic] man.
