Traditionally, the Ausonian pound (''livre'') was defined as the mass of exactly {{frac|1|70}} of a Ausonian cubic foot of water. Various provinces, cities, and even guilds often had their own physical standards of measurement, many of which were not consistent with one another as well as the main standard used in Savonnes. It would not be until the late 18th century that the Savonian standard would be standardised using {{wp|SI}} definitions and adopted universally across the whole Commonwealth. | |||
As with most other systems, there were two system used, a general system for ordinary use, and an {{wp|apothecaries' system}} used by physicians and the measures of precious metals. | |||
