Unit Definition (nook) The nook is a traditional unit of land area in northern England. Originally the nook was 1/2 virgate; a virgate, often called a yardland in the north, was about 30 acres in southern England but tended to be closer to 40 acres in the north. A nook of land thus came to be 20 acres or about 8.094 hectares. Unit Definition (sitio) The sitio is a name used traditionally in Mexico and the southwestern U.S. for the square legua, a unit of area equal to 25 million square varas or about 1800 hectares. The word means "place".
