Units explained
Mina (Biblical Greek)
The Greek mina was about 0.34 kg, one-sixtieth of a talent (100 drachmae).
Adopted from Near-Eastern metrology into the Greek system.
Hellenistic and New Testament commerce.
A standard sub-unit of the Greek talent.
Centigram
A centigram (cg) equals 0.00001 kilogram, or 0.01 gram.
From the SI prefix 'centi-' (from Latin 'centum', hundred).
Used in pharmacology and analytical chemistry.
Part of the original metric system of 1795.
