“1963, Scripta Mathematica, vol. 1, page 296, ISSN 0036-9713. Later he spoke of "subdividing each Eptameride into ten parts, called Decamerides." But he did not use this more subtle division in practice.”

“The second contribution of Sauveur is the development of a more exact method of computing intervals based upon logarithmic numbers which he terms merides, eptamerides and decamerides.”

“1991, Theoria, vol. 5-6, page 26, ISSN 1554-1312. The interval of the fifth, it will be recalled, contains 176 eptamerides or 25 merides (plus 1 eptameride).”

“The Merides were divided into seven parts called Eptamerides. For more subtle distinctions, Sauveur suggested using Decamerides, 10 of which comprised one Eptameride.”
