Yes, probably.

Next time, when you have measurement questions you might also try these 
files in the COMMERCE section of the Florilegium:
measures-art      (21K)  1/ 5/98    Definitions of many medieval 
measurements
                                        by Marc Carlson (Diarmaid)
measures-msg      (74K)  6/ 7/99    Period measures and cautions for 
recipes.

I've tried to make sure the answers to questions such as yours get 
added to the latter file.
