Question

Q) what is meant by this?

Exchanges were regulated by a precise system of

weights, usually made of a stone called chert and

generally cubical , with no markings. The lower denominations of weights were binary (1, 2, 4,

8, 16, 32, etc. up to 12,800), while the higher

denominations followed the decimal system. The

smaller weights were probably used for weighing

jewellery and beads. Metal scale-pans have also

been found.
