Arpent (arpent carré) - historical French/Canadian land area

- Notes: Values differed by locale and era (Paris vs. provincial measures). Always verify the jurisdiction’s legal definition for archival deeds and surveys.
- Typical examples: long-lot riverfront concessions described in arpents (e.g., frontage in linear arpents; parcel area in square arpents)
