    Comprehensive Explanation of the Arpent as a Unit of Measurement

    Definition of the Arpent

    Arpent Historical

    The arpent has evolved from the Roman actus, a measure of land that could be cultivated in a day with the help of a pair of oxen. In medieval France, the word "arpent" was transformational and became the measuring instrument of land division in France.
    What stands out as pretty special about this arpent system is the impact it exercised over land traditions. The areas where it was used, for instance in the Mississippi River Valley, resulted in long and narrow land parcels, with narrow facing the rivers. Positioning was excellent for both irrigation for farming and movement of canoe/craft either upwards or downwards along this water body.
