词条 | Acetabulum (unit) |
释义 |
In Ancient Roman measurement, the acetabulum was a measure of volume (fluid and dry) equivalent to the Greek {{lang|grc|ὀξύβαφον}}. It was one-fourth of the hemina and therefore one-eighth of the sextarius. It contained the weight in water of fifteen Attic drachmae. Used with some frequency by Pliny the Elder, in a 1952 translation the unit was judged to be equivalent to 63 cubic centimeters.[1] However, other sources estimate a higher value of perhaps 68 cc (see Ancient Roman units of measurement).
