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."
