What is a Furlong?
A furlong (220 yards or 201.168 m) originated as an ox-plowing furrow length. Still used in horse racing (1/8 mile) and some agricultural contexts, it was fundamental to the English acre definition.
What is an Arpent?
The arpent was a French land measurement ranging from 0.3-1.3 acres (1,300-5,300 m²). In colonial Louisiana, it standardized to 0.85 acres (3,439 m²) - about 192 French feet square. This unit persists in Quebec property records and New Orleans land deeds, where 'Arpent Lines' still mark historic boundaries.
