About these units
Gram (g)
The gram is one-thousandth of a kilogram and is widely used in everyday life for measuring food, medicines, small components, and scientific samples. Its scale is convenient for objects too light to measure in kilograms yet too heavy for milligrams. Chemists, biologists, and lab technicians rely heavily on grams to quantify reagents, biological specimens, powders, and liquids. The gram appears frequently in nutrition labels, recipes, and manufacturing specifications. As a metric unit, the gram benefits from simplicity and ease of conversion—just move the decimal to reach milligrams or kilograms. Its intuitive scale makes it one of the most universally recognized units in the world.
Didrachma (Biblical Greek) (didrachma)
The didrachma, weighing around 8.5–9 grams, represented two drachmas. It appears in Greek, Roman, and biblical texts, often as a common temple tax or civic fee amount. Its moderate size made it practical for everyday transactions, bridging smaller denominations and larger, more valuable coins such as tetradrachms. The didrachma's consistent appearance in multiple cultures shows how interconnected the ancient Mediterranean economies were.
