An Ankanam is a unit of measure similar to an acre. It is used mainly in regions of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, Nellore, Anekal, Bengaluru and Tirupati. An Ankanam is measured as 72 sq ft (6.7 m2), (mostly in the Nellore District) and, in some places (such as Tirupati), 36 sq ft (3.3 m2). In Nellore, one acre equals 605 Ankanams, and 1 cent amounts to 6.05 Ankanams. This unit is very popular, presumably because it is easier to calculate the cost of a piece of land.
