Metric measures are the standard in most of European archaeology, so all measurements should be given in metric units. It is possible that it may make sense to provide certain measurements in English units as well. If this is deemed to be the case, they will be inserted editorially in parentheses after the metric units, with the conversion made using a uniform conversion program. Watch this space for more FAQs.
