ell

An ell is a unit of length used historically in textiles and other measurements. One ell is equivalent to approximately 45 inches or 1.143 meters.

The ell was originally based on the length of a person's arm or the length of a specific type of cloth, and its definition varied between regions and periods. The unit was commonly used in the textile industry for measuring fabric lengths.

Ells are less commonly used today but remain of historical interest in the study of historical measurements and practices, particularly in textiles and historical trade.

Fingerbreadth

A fingerbreadth is a historical unit of length based on the width of a person's finger. One fingerbreadth is approximately equivalent to 1 inch or about 0.0254 meters.

The fingerbreadth is defined as the width of a finger at its widest point, typically used for practical measurements in various contexts such as textiles and small dimensions.

Fingerbreadths were used in historical measurement systems to provide a simple and accessible means of measuring smaller lengths and dimensions. While not commonly used today, the unit offers insight into traditional measurement practices and standards.
