Cuerda Historical
The Club of Cuerda has its roots in Spanish colonial ground measurement. It was employed as a basic form of division while distributing fertile farmland during colonialism, especially among those regions that the Spaniards colonized. The word soud within cueda is 'rope,' probably because it was initially used to calibrate a fixed rope when measuring plots of land.
In Puerto Rico measurements, the cuerda was brought into conformity with the acre, which is believed to have followed the American territorial administration from 1898. However, in some other parts of the world, the cuerda continued to use the smaller and more local equivalent for measurements.
