About these units
Mina (Biblical Hebrew) (mina)
A mina was a mid-sized Hebrew weight unit, commonly approximated as 560–600 grams, though it varied historically. It served as the intermediary unit between the shekel and the talent: 1 talent = 60 minas 1 mina = 50 shekels Minas were used in both commercial trade and temple accounting. They appear in ancient Near Eastern texts describing wages, penalties, and allocations of precious materials. Because of their role in administrative and religious contexts, the mina highlights the bureaucratic sophistication of ancient Israel and surrounding cultures.
Stone (US) (st (US))
The US stone was an informal and nonstandardized unit occasionally used in the 19th century, with no single agreed-upon value. Unlike the British stone (14 pounds), the US stone varied regionally and by trade context, typically ranging from 12 to 16 pounds, depending on the commodity and location. Farmers, butchers, and merchants sometimes used stones to weigh produce, meat, or livestock, but the lack of uniform regulation prevented it from becoming an official or widely adopted unit. Today, the US stone is entirely obsolete, but references to it appear in historical American trade documents, agricultural records, and pre-standardization weight systems. It serves as a reminder of the diversity of early American measurements before the widespread adoption of the avoirdupois pound.
