They would also enter into arrangements with temples and shrines to sell their goods on a pitch or platform in the temple''s (or shrine''s) grounds, placing themselves under the auspices and protection of the temple or shrine. The word za, meaning seat, pitch, or platform, was thus applied to the guilds. The name may have also come, more simply, from the idea of merchants within a guild or association sharing a seat or platform in the marketplace.
