About these units
Hundredweight (UK) (cwt (UK))
The British hundredweight equals 112 pounds (50.802345 kg). The extra 12 pounds derive from England's historical use of a 14-pound stone. The British hundredweight was used across the former British Empire for trade, taxation, and freight classification. It scales into the long ton (20 cwt = 1 long ton), forming a fully coherent system within imperial measurements. While replaced by metric units in the UK, this unit persists in historical documents, trade archives, and older engineering references.
Shekel (Biblical Hebrew) (shekel)
The shekel, approximately 11.3 grams, is the foundational Hebrew weight unit, originally used for silver-based transactions long before it became a monetary term. In Biblical contexts, shekels represent wages, prices, fines, and sacrificial offerings. The shekel's mass-based origins mean that early shekel "coins" were actually weighed pieces of silver rather than minted currency. The modern Israeli currency's name (the New Israeli Shekel) preserves the ancient term, linking present-day society to its deep historical roots.
