About these units
Cor (Biblical) (cor)
The cor, also called a homer, is a large ancient Hebrew volume unit often estimated at 220–230 liters. It was used primarily for dry goods like grain but sometimes also referenced for liquids such as oil. Because the cor was large, it played a central role in agricultural recordkeeping, taxation, and royal provisioning. References in the Hebrew Bible describe tribute, temple offerings, and agricultural yields in cors, indicating its prominence in early economic systems. The cor's size reveals the scale of ancient farming operations, where grain harvests needed units big enough to represent substantial quantities.
Fluid Ounce (US) (fl oz (US))
A US fluid ounce is approximately 29.5735 milliliters. It is not a unit of weight, despite sometimes being confused with the avoirdupois ounce. In beverage serving sizes, cooking, and pharmaceuticals, the fluid ounce provides a flexible unit for small to medium volumes. It serves as the basis for bartending measurements, packaging labels, and nutritional information. Its precise value derives from the US gallon, making the fluid ounce a key link in the US customary volume system.
