About These Units
About Gry
The gry is a proposed unit of distance in the English traditional system. The name was first used in June 1679 by the philosopher John Locke (1632-1704) as a unit equal to 0.001 foot, 0.01 inch, or 0.1 line in a decimalized distance system. (Thomas Jefferson, who was very familiar with Lockes writings, later proposed a similar system in the U.S., but he called 0.001 foot a point rather than a gry.) In 1813, the gry was revived in another decimal measurement scheme in Britain. All these ideas failed, but the gry had some limited use in the nineteenth century as a unit equal to 0.1 line or 1/120 inch (0.211 667 millimeter). Long forgotten, the gry recently came back into the limelight in connection with a puzzle, circulating on the Internet, which asked for three English words ending in -gry. The word "gry" is from the ancient Greek, where it meant "a trifling amount".
About Pertica
The <b>pertica</b> was an ancient Roman unit of length equal to 10 Roman feet (pedes), measuring approximately 2.96 meters. Originally meaning "measuring rod," it was a fundamental surveying tool used by Roman land surveyors (agrimensores) for measuring fields and plotting land divisions. The term is the root of the English word "perch."
