The Royal Cubits by Jonathan Wilkie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The origins of lineal measurement remain shrouded in history. Which civilization was the first to create a ruler is uncertain, but the Egyptian, Hebraic, and Mesopotamian civilizations all required, from their very inception, a standardized single measuring system to determine lengths and weights. The standards that were established were kept in the temples and palaces of the time. | The Royal Cubits by Jonathan Wilkie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
