History

Week (wk)

The week, symbolized by wk, is 7 days long. Its history is rooted in ancient traditions, including Babylonian, Jewish, and Roman customs. The seven-day week originated because of religion and culture, and later became established through Christianity and Islam. Although the week is not based on astronomy, it is now widely used in calendars and daily life. Its long use shows how strong traditions are in setting time.

Hour (h)

The hour, symbol h, is 60 minutes or 3,600 seconds. It began in ancient times, when people divided the day into 24 parts based on the sun’s movement. This method of dividing the day has remained throughout history. Today, hours organize daily life—jobs, TV, and transport rely on them. The hour is not an SI unit, but it is widely used for convenience and accuracy.
