Vara Conuquera

The vara conuquera is a traditional Spanish unit of length used historically in some parts of Spain and Spanish America, especially in land measurement. It is a regional variation of the vara, which generally measures around 33 inches (about 0.84 meters), but the vara conuquera specifically is associated with the unit used for measuring conucos—small agricultural plots or gardens.

The length of the vara conuquera could vary locally but was typically similar to or a fraction of the standard vara. It was used primarily in rural land surveying and agriculture to define plots and land boundaries.

Cubit (Greek)

The Greek cubit is an ancient unit of length based on the forearm’s length—from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger. In ancient Greece, it typically measured about 18 to 20 inches (approximately 45 to 50 centimeters), though the exact length could vary by region and period.

The Greek cubit was widely used in architecture, construction, and land measurement. It played a crucial role in building temples, monuments, and other structures in classical Greece.
