The Zugot is a reference to the period bridging between the students of the Anshe Knesset Hagedolah and the Tanaim and to the Sages that led these generations. This era lasted for roughly 208 years between 3560 and 3768. Each generation was led by a pair of two Sages, hence the name 'Zugot', literally 'the Pairs'.
