A Brief History of Volume Measurement

The earliest volume units were based on practical containers such as bowls and jars. Over time, societies introduced standard units like the cup, pint, and gallon. The metric system later defined the liter and its multiples/subdivisions to simplify measurement globally. Today, both systems coexist, especially in cross-border industries and international recipes.
