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.

Chains

A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.

The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.

Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
