Unit Definition (mile [statute])
A non metric unit of length; a statute mile, used for distances over land, is defined as 5280 ft.; a nautical mile, used for distances along the surface of the oceans, is defined as one minute of arc measured along the equator, which equals 6080.27 fit or 1.1516 statute miles.

Unit Definition (cana (canna, canne))
The caña (canna, canne) are traditional units of distance in Spain, Italy, and southern France, respectively. The caña varied in size, but it was most often defined as 8 palmos, which makes it the Mediterranean version of the fathom, equal to roughly 2 meters or 6.5 feet. In Italy a measuring stick is still called a canna metrica. The unit is sometimes translated to "rod" in English, but "fathom" is the proper choice.
