How did they measure longer distances, did they have a measuring wheel? Or just laid out many cubit, one after another?
And what do you think they'd measure using those fractions like the 1/16th? I'm building my own as I write this.

Not sure if they have real Hieroglyphs on them or not, but knowing what is written in the background of the Gravekeepers yu-gi-oh cards would be neat.
