Adam Jones, *West Africa in the mid-seventeenth century: An
Anonymous Dutch Manuscript* (African Studies Association Press,
1995), lists a variety of liquid measures on page 308: the
amm, the stoop, the kan, and the pot. In the case of the amm,
Jones says that it was about 154 litres. He also goes on to
say that 1 amm = 64 stoopen and that 1 stoop = 2 potten.
However, Jones provides no information on the kan. Does
anyone know the litre equivalency of 1 kan, or how many kan
made up 1 amm?
