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.
Hundred-Cubic Foot (100 ft³)
This is simply another expression of 100 cubic feet, used in billing systems, engineering calculations, and pipeline monitoring. Where the abbreviation CCF is standard for water utilities, many technical publications explicitly use "100 ft³" to avoid ambiguity. Engineers working on ventilation systems, gas pipelines, or storage capacities may choose this form for clarity in calculations. Its simplicity and direct reference to cubic feet make it a universally understood expression in industries that rely on imperial volume measurement.
