About These Units
About Feet
The human foot has long been a standard unit for the measurement of length. Over history this size has varied from region to region and there is some discrepancy as to an exact standard or origin of the standard measurement for feet that we use today. In England, the Roman foot was replaced after the fall of Rome by the natural foot. The modern foot (1/3 yard or about 30.48 centimeters) did not appear until after the Norman conquest of 1066. It may be an innovation of Henry I, who reigned from 1100 to 1135. Later in the 1100s a foot of modern length, the "foot of St. Pauls," was inscribed on the base of a column of St. Pauls Church in London.
About Palmo [Portuguese]
The palmo is a traditional unit of distance in Spain and Portugal. The Portuguese palmo equals 0.1 braça or about 22.0 centimeters (8.66 inches). These units are based on the width of a persons outstretched hand, from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger, a definition identical to that of the English span.
