Plethron (Greek: πλέθρον, plural plethra) is an ancient unit of Greek measurement equal to 97-100 Greek feet (ποῦς, pous; ca. 30 meters), although the measures for plethra may have varied from polis to polis. This was roughly the width of a typical ancient Greek athletic running-track.

A plethron could also be used as a unit of measured area, and reference to the unit in defining the size of a wrestling area is made by Libanius. A square plethron of ca. 30 by 30 meters was used as the standard dimensions of a Greek wrestling square, since such competitions were held within the racing track in ancient Greece. In other connotations, it functioned as the Greek acre, and varied in size to accommodate the amount of land a team of oxen could plow in a day.

The plethron continued to be used in the Byzantine Empire, where its variant uses were ultimately codified to refer to an area defined by sides of 100 feet or 40 paces (βῆμα, bema). Ultimately, the unit came to be known as the "stremma", which continues as a metric unit in modern Greece.

Plethron (πλέθρον) ou « plèthre » est une mesure utilisée dans l'Antiquité, égale à 100 pieds grecs (pous / ποῦς). Il faisait à peu près la largeur d'une piste d'athlétisme, il était également utilisé comme la largeur et la longueur standard d'un carré de lutte. Un plethron est donné par Libanios dans Oratio Chapitre 10 comme la taille de l'aire de combat dans la lutte. Bien que la mesure standard pour un plethron peut varier d'une polis à une autre, il correspondait normalement à la longueur d'environ 30 mètres. Le plethron continuait à être utilisé dans l'Empire byzantin et correspondait à 40 pas.
