|wketx=The mina (also mĕnē, Aramaic; Hebrew: מנה) is an ancient Near Eastern unit of weight, which was divided into 50 shekels. The mina, like the shekel, was also a unit of currency. In ancient Greece, it originally equalled 70 drachmae and later was increased to 100 drachmae. The Greek word mna (μνᾶ) was borrowed from Semitic; compare Hebrew māneh, Aramaic mĕnē, Syriac manyā, Ugaritic mn, and Akkadian manū. However, before it was used as currency, a mina was a unit of measurement, equal to 1.25 pounds (0.57 kg). From earliest Sumerian times, a mina was a unit of weight. At first, talents and shekels had not yet been introduced. By the time of Ur-Nammu, the mina had a value of 1/60 talents as well as 60 shekels. The value of the mina is calculated at 1.25 pounds (0.57 kg). Evidence from Ugarit indicates that a mina was equivalent to fifty shekels. The prophet Ezekiel refers to a mina ('maneh' in the King James Version) as sixty shekels, in the Book of Ezekiel 45:12. Jesus of Nazareth tells the "parable of the minas" in Luke 19:11-27. From the Akkadian period, 2 mina was equal to 1 sila of water (cf. clepsydra, water clock).

|wkittx=Mina (in greco μνᾶ mna, latino mina) è un'antica moneta greca. Era inizialmente un'unità di misura orientale. Esistevano sia la mina babilonese che la mina ebraica. Una mina ebraica era costituita da 50 sicli. Il talento era costituito da 60 mine. Il peso era tra i 500 e gli 800 grammi. Con Ezechiele ("Il siclo sarà di venti ghere; venti sicli più venticinque sicli più quindici sicli formeranno la vostra mina") la mina diventa di 60 sicli, diventando così uguale a quella babilonese. Introdotta nel sistema greco aveva ad esempio ad Atene una massa di 436,6 grammi. Con una mina di argento venivano coniate 100 dracme. 60 mine costituivano un talento.
