What this page does not do: Units varied by period and context. 1 setat = 10,000 × 0.525² = 2756.25 m². Khar is not incorrectly equated with 20 hekat. Unverified names and relationships from the original brief are omitted. π − φ² ≈ 0.5235586645 is dimensionless and does not establish the origin of the Egyptian cubit.
