About these units
Centiliter (cL)
A centiliter equals 1/100 of a liter and is commonly used in beverage labeling, especially in Europe. Alcohol content, soft drink servings, and cooking measurements often appear in centiliters due to its convenient scale for small but not tiny volumes. Many European recipes also use cL because the metric system simplifies culinary measurement. Bartenders frequently use 2 cL or 4 cL pours for spirits, making the centiliter central to mixology and hospitality industries. The unit's casual everyday adoption shows how cultural preferences influence the popularity of particular metric subdivisions.
Homer (Biblical) (homer)
The homer, equivalent to the cor, served as the foundational large-scale volume unit in Biblical Hebrew society. Its name derives from a term meaning "load" or "donkey-load," reinforcing its use as a practical, transportable measure. Divided into 10 baths, the homer formed part of a hierarchical system that allowed easy transitions between large and small quantities. The unit's frequent appearance in the books of Ezekiel and Leviticus highlights its importance in religious offerings and economic exchanges.
