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.
Kens
A ken is a historical unit of length used in various cultures, particularly in Asia. The length of a ken can vary depending on the region and context. In Japan, one ken is approximately equivalent to 6 feet or about 1.8288 meters.
