Russian Archin

The archin (also spelled arshin) is a traditional Russian unit of length that was widely used before the adoption of the metric system. It is approximately equal to 28 inches or 0.7112 meters.

The archin was commonly used in measuring cloth, land, and building dimensions in Russia and neighboring regions. It roughly corresponds to the length of a forearm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger, similar to the cubit.

Though obsolete today, the archin remains an important part of Russian historical measurements and appears in older legal and trade documents.

Summary:

1 archin ≈ 28 inches (0.7112 meters)
Used historically in Russia for textiles and land measurement
Based on the length of the forearm
Mostly of historical and cultural interest today

Kiloyard

A kiloyard is a less commonly used unit of length that equals 1,000 yards. Since one yard is exactly 0.9144 meters, a kiloyard is equivalent to 914.4 meters or 0.9144 kilometers.

While not widely used in everyday measurements or scientific contexts, the kiloyard may occasionally appear in specialized fields like military applications, ballistics, or older engineering texts where large distances were measured in yards. It follows the metric-style prefix "kilo-" (meaning one thousand) combined with the imperial unit "yard."

Conversion:

1 kiloyard = 1,000 yards
1 kiloyard = 914.4 meters
1 kiloyard ≈ 0.568 miles

Due to the dominance of the metric system and the more common use of miles for longer imperial distances, the kiloyard remains a rare and non-standard unit in most modern contexts.
