Commentary for Kiddushin 50:6

רבי זירא אמר מביא ארבעה כלים ומניחן תחת רגליו שמעת מינה כליו של לוקח ברשות מוכר קנה לוקח הכא במאי עסקינן בסימטא

R'Joseph demurred: If so, how can an elephant be acquired, according to R'Simeon? - Said Abaye to him: By halifin, or by renting its place.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' It then becomes his temporarily, and the elephant too; v. Mishnah on 26a.');">¹²</span> R'Zera said: He [the purchaser] brings four utensils and places them under its feet.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., causes the elephant to step upon them; he is then regarded as having placed it in his utensils, so acquiring it.');">¹³</span> Then you may infer from this that when the purchaser's utensils are in the vendor's domain [and a bought commodity is placed in them] the purchaser obtains a title.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For presumably the elephant was standing in the vendor's grounds. But this question is disputed in B.B. 85a.');">¹⁴</span> - The reference here is to an alley.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Adjoining a public thoroughfare: this is a 'no man's land'.');">¹⁵</span>
