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.
Long cubits
A long cubit is a historical unit of length used in various ancient cultures. One long cubit is approximately equivalent to 20.4 inches or about 0.518 meters.
The long cubit was used for measurements in construction, architecture, and textiles, and its length could vary slightly depending on the historical period and specific region. It was often based on the length from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger, but with slight variations in different cultures.
Long cubits are of historical interest for understanding ancient construction and measurement practices. Although not in common use today, the unit provides valuable insight into the standards and techniques used in ancient civilizations.
