Anthal
The (das) Anthal , also Antal , Antalak , Andal , was a Hungarian measure of volume and was only used for wine.
The size corresponded to half of a barrel (one barrel = 2 Anthal Hungarian wine). According to other sources, 60 to 70 jugs were an anthal. It was also called the little barrel; the big one was called Antalka. One large barrel corresponded to three small barrels according to Friedrich Anton Strackerjan.
- 1 Anthal Tokayer = 2548 Parisian cubic inches = 50 27/50 liters
A distinction was often made between
- Upper Hungarian Anthal = 3600 Parisian cubic inches (= 3697 9/14 Parisian cubic inches = 73 ⅓ liters)
- Lower Hungarian Anthal = 2536 Parisian cubic inches
The dimensional chain was
- 1 anhal = 2 anchors = 10 quarters = 60 fabrics .
In Tokal, 1 Antal was equal to 88 halves (pressburger) = 73.3546 liters.
