What is a kiloton (metric)?

A kiloton (metric) is a mass unit equal to 1,000 metric tons or 1,000,000 kilograms, commonly used to quantify very large masses.

What was the assarion used for historically?

The assarion was an ancient Roman and Biblical-era unit used for weighing small amounts like coins, spices, or medicines.

Why is the conversion factor so large?

Because the kiloton is a very large modern mass unit and the assarion is a small ancient measure, resulting in a large numeric conversion ratio.

Examples

2 kiloton (metric) equals 8311688311.6884 Assarion (Biblical Roman).
0.5 kiloton (metric) equals 2077922077.9221 Assarion (Biblical Roman).

Common Use Cases

Quantifying large modern masses while referencing ancient units in scholarly papers.
Interpreting weight statements in Biblical and Roman archaeological texts.
Providing context in translations and commentaries on historical documents.
Comparing ancient small commodity weights to modern large-scale measurements.

Tips & Best Practices

Consider the historical variation and lack of standardization in the Assarion unit.
Use conversion results primarily for academic or interpretative purposes.
Complement conversion with contextual research in historical metrology.
Avoid using this conversion for practical mass measurement tasks outside scholarly work.

Limitations

The Assarion unit varies by time and place and lacks a fixed modern standard.
The large conversion factor shows the scale difference between units, limiting practical use.
Conversions should be interpreted cautiously due to variability and context dependency.
