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.
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.
