What is one cor (Biblical) in liters?

One cor (Biblical) is approximately equal to 220 liters, representing an ancient dry volume unit.

Why convert cor (Biblical) to hectoliters?

Converting cor to hectoliters helps interpret and compare ancient volume measures using modern metric units in fields like agriculture and archaeology.

Is the cor strictly a dry volume unit?

Yes, the cor measures dry volumes, while the hectoliter primarily measures liquids, so the conversion assumes equivalent volumetric capacity.

Tips & Best Practices

Always confirm the context of the cor unit since historical values may vary
Remember the cor is a dry volume while the hectoliter is liquid-based; consider material density if relevant
Use the tool alongside source references for accurate historical analysis
Verify example calculations to ensure understanding of the conversion factor
Apply rounded values thoughtfully depending on your research or application needs

Limitations

The exact volume of the cor (Biblical) can differ by historical region and interpretation
This conversion assumes volume equivalency between dry and liquid units without density adjustments
Results should be used as approximate values rather than absolute measurements
