The Hehloh was a measure of length in Sumatra and was considered a yardstick . Despite the introduction of the English dimensions (Fanthom / Faden as standard with 6 English feet ), England had sovereignty until 1824, the local dimensions continued to apply.

The dimensional chain was

  • 1 Dipoh = 2 Hehlohs / Hailobs = 4 Estos / Kobbit / Cobits / Covids = 8 Jankala / Spannen = 16 Tempohs
