Handbreadth A handbreadth is a historical unit of length used to measure small distances, typically based on the width of a hand. One handbreadth is approximately equivalent to 4 inches or about 0.1016 meters.
The handbreadth is defined as the width of a person's hand, measured from the edge of the thumb to the edge of the little finger when the hand is spread out. This unit was used for practical measurements in various contexts, including textiles and construction.
Handbreadths were used in historical measurement systems for assessing lengths and dimensions where precise tools were not available. Although less common today, the unit provides historical context for traditional measurement practices and everyday use in different cultures.
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.
