וְיֵשׁ שֶׁאָמְרוּ בְּמִדָּה דַקָּה, מִדּוֹת הַלַּח וְהַיָּבֵשׁ שִׁעוּרָן בָּאִיטַלְקִי, זוֹ מִדְבָּרִית. וְיֵשׁ שֶׁאָמְרוּ, הַכֹּל לְפִי מַה שֶּׁהוּא אָדָם, הַקּוֹמֵץ אֶת הַמִּנְחָה, וְהַחוֹפֵן אֶת הַקְּטֹרֶת, וְהַשּׁוֹתֶה כִמְלֹא לֻגְמָיו בְּיוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים, וְכִמְזוֹן שְׁתֵּי סְעֻדּוֹת לָעֵרוּב, מְזוֹנוֹ לְחֹל אֲבָל לֹא לְשַׁבָּת, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי מֵאִיר. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, לְשַׁבָּת אֲבָל לֹא לְחֹל. אֵלּוּ וָאֵלּוּ מִתְכַּוְּנִין לְהָקֵל. רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמֵר, מִשְּׁתֵּי יָדוֹת לְכִכָּר, מִשָּׁלֹשׁ לְקָב. רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן בֶּן בְּרוֹקָא אוֹמֵר, מִכִּכָּר בְּפֻנְדְּיוֹן, מֵאַרְבַּע סְאִין בְּסָלַע:

And sometimes they stated a smaller measure: Liquid and dry measures were measured with the Italian standard which was the one that was used in the wilderness. Sometimes they stated [a measure] according to the individual concerned: One who takes the handful of a grain offering; one who takes both hands full of incense; one who drinks a cheekful on Yom Kippur; and the two meals for an eruv: food for the weekday and not Shabbat, the words of Rabbi Meir. Rabbi Yehudah says: for Shabbat but not for the weekday. And both intended to give the more lenient ruling. Rabbi Shimon says: two thirds of a loaf, when three [loaves] are made of a <em>kav</em> [of flour]. Rabbi Yochanan ben Beroka says: a loaf that is purchased for a <em>pundion</em> [when the price of wheat] is four <em>se'ah</em> for a <em>sela</em>.

Tosefta Ketubot

A man who supports his wife through a third party, all of [the measurements of items he has to give her laid out in Mishnah Ketubot 5:8] have to be Italian measures, regardless whether she is a menstruant, sick or waiting for her levir [in other words: it doesn't matter her situation, the measurements are the same]. He has to give her a cup, barrel, pot, jug, lamp and wick. She doesn't get wine because wives of poor men don't drink wine. She doesn't get a mattress because the wives of poor men don't sleep on mattresses.
