The acre is a unit of land area used in the imperial and US customary systems. It is defined as the area of 1 chain by 1 furlong (66 by 660 feet), which is exactly equal to 1⁄640 of a square mile, 43,560 square feet, approximately 4,047 m2, or about 40% of a hectare.
The stremma (pl. stremmata; Greek: στρέμμα, strémma) is a Greek unit of land area now equal to precisely 1,000 square meters. It is also known as the royal stremma to distinguish it from earlier forms of the unit.
