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.
Microgram
A microgram (ug) equals 10^-9 kilogram, or one-millionth of a gram.
From the SI prefix 'micro-' (from Greek 'mikros', small).
Trace nutrients, potent drug doses, and environmental contaminant levels.
The micro- prefix was incorporated into the SI in 1960.
