Measuring Instruments ⚖️
Instruments of measure play a major role, relating Standards, Measurement, Calculation and arbitrating justice. Knowing what kind of instruments were used helps us understand what kind of measurement standards were established and how they are established. In addition it can also draw us a picture of what are being quantified and how the filtering critieria were implemented. This picture can illustrate the social process behind the state emergence, establishment, social stratification, etc.. Moreover, by learning the quantification process could push to travel the process of abstraction, who justified it, how it was justified, and what was erased/left behind.
Learning the relationship between devising the apparatus of measurement, measuring instrument, act of measurement, measurer, standardization as arbiter of justice at the place of work, and how the value travels further in complete abstraction that ignores/erases/filters out the reality in several sense makes Metrology (science of measuring) more historical.
