The Beautiful Cubit System

Creators

  • 1. None

Description

An analysis of the Egyptian Royal cubit, presenting some research and opinions flowing from that research, into what I believe was the original cubit, and how it was corrupted. I show various close arithmetic approximations and multiple ways of getting the divisions of the cubit, as well as some related measures. The cubit also encapsulates the basic components for the metric system.

Notes

Fixed numbering, removed excess white space, assorted very minor edits.
