What is one cor (Biblical) equal to in gigaliters?

One cor (Biblical) equals 2.2e-7 gigaliters based on the defined conversion rate.

Can this tool be used to convert liquid volumes from cor?

The cor measures dry volume, so the conversion assumes volume equivalence but does not reflect liquid state properties.

Why is the cor (Biblical) unit important in archaeology?

It helps in interpreting ancient storage capacities and agricultural yields reported in Biblical and archaeological contexts.

What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms volume values from the ancient Biblical unit cor (Biblical), primarily used for dry goods, into gigaliters (GL), a contemporary unit used for measuring very large liquid volumes in scientific and engineering contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the volume amount measured in cor (Biblical) into the input field.
Select cor (Biblical) as the source unit and gigaliter [GL] as the target unit.
Click the convert button to get the equivalent volume in gigaliters.
Review the output result reflecting the converted value using the official conversion factor.
Use converted values to assist in research or data analysis involving ancient and modern volumes.

Key Features

Converts cor (Biblical), an ancient Hebrew dry volume unit, to gigaliters (GL) efficiently.
Uses a defined conversion rate linking historical measurements to modern volume standards.
Facilitates interpretations in archaeology, biblical studies, hydrology, and resource management.
Browser-based tool requiring no installation, enabling quick volume conversions online.
Supports understanding and comparison of ancient quantities with contemporary measurements.

Examples

5 cor (Biblical) converts to 1.1e-6 gigaliters.
1000 cor (Biblical) converts to 0.00022 gigaliters.

Common Use Cases

Interpreting grain or oil volumes mentioned in Biblical texts in modern volume units.
Archaeological studies estimating ancient storage or agricultural yields.
Hydrology and water resource management comparing ancient measures to current reservoir volumes.
Environmental engineering projects needing conversion between historical dry units and liquid volume units.
Academic research bridging ancient economic data with modern measurement systems.

Tips & Best Practices

Understand that cor (Biblical) measures dry volume, so volume comparisons assume equivalent volume despite material differences.
Use the tool for approximations, as the ancient cor unit volume can vary in historical sources.
Apply converted results mainly for comparative or interpretative purposes rather than precise engineering calculations.
Verify results when integrating converted values into large-scale water management models due to very small conversion scale.
Combine this tool with other historical data for more comprehensive archaeological or biblical analyses.

Limitations

The cor is an approximate ancient unit with some volume variability across sources.
It represents dry volume, while gigaliter measures liquid volume; direct equivalency might not always be accurate.
Very small converted values could reduce practical precision in extensive scientific applications.
