I interpreted it as a century, being that size of unit commanded by a centurion.

That’s still available for art work. In COE 104, COE 96, or for borosilicate glass blowing for stuff that’s more heat resistant.

About 10 years ago, I saw an art installation that had uranium glass chandeliers dangling to around shoulder-height, glowing under UV light in in a dark room. Each chandelier had a sign under it with the name of a country that operated nuclear power plants, and the size of the chandelier was proportional to the size of that country’s nuclear power output.

It was creepy and beautiful.
