About these units
Fluid Ounce (UK) (fl oz (UK))
A UK fluid ounce equals 28.4130625 mL, slightly larger than the US fluid ounce. It forms part of the imperial system used in cooking, beverage preparation, and older pharmaceutical formulations. Imperial fluid ounces were historically derived from the UK gallon (1/160 of a gallon), distinguishing them from US units derived from a different gallon. Though metric units dominate in the UK today, fluid ounces still appear in bartending, antique recipes, and product packaging that caters to traditional preferences or legacy export markets.
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.
