Assarion (Biblical Roman)
The assarion was a small Roman bronze or copper coin used in ancient times, often as a unit of weight and currency.
History/Origin
Originating in the Roman Empire, the assarion was used during the late Republic and early Imperial periods, primarily in the Eastern provinces. It served both as a monetary unit and a standard for measuring small weights.
Current Use
The assarion is no longer in use today. It is primarily of historical interest and is referenced in studies of ancient Roman economy and numismatics.
Kilogram
The kilogram (kg) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), defined as the mass of the International Prototype Kilogram, a platinum-iridium alloy cylinder kept at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures.
History/Origin
The kilogram was originally defined in 1795 as the mass of one liter of water. It was later represented by a platinum standard in 1875, known as the International Prototype Kilogram, which served as the global standard until 2019.
Current Use
Today, the kilogram is defined by the Planck constant, fixed at exactly 6.62607015×10⁻³⁴ joule seconds, ensuring greater precision and stability in measurements worldwide. It is widely used in science, industry, and commerce for measuring mass.
