About these units
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.
Dekaliter (daL)
A dekaliter equals 10 liters and is used primarily in agricultural planning, winery operations, and breweries. Wine production volumes, for instance, are sometimes recorded in dekaliters because it provides a manageable number between the hectoliter and liter scales. In beverage industries, daL simplifies recordkeeping by avoiding excessively large numbers when cataloging batches or tank capacities. Though uncommon in everyday use, the dekaliter plays a practical role in sectors dealing with medium-scale liquid quantities.
