About these units
Milliliter (mL)
A milliliter, defined as 1/1,000 of a liter or precisely 1 cubic centimeter, is a small but enormously significant volume unit in cooking, medicine, pharmacy, and laboratory science. Medical syringes, dosing spoons, and IV solutions rely heavily on milliliter accuracy. In laboratories, mL measurements are routine for preparing reagents, dilutions, and biological media. Because 1 mL = 1 cm³, many devices use either notation interchangeably depending on context. Despite its small size, the milliliter is commonly used in daily life as well—perfume bottles, beverage labels, and household cleaners often list contents in milliliters. Its precision and simplicity make the milliliter one of the world's most practical measurement 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.
