> weighing 500 kilograms (1,100 lb) over 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi)
If you do not have data that those projectiles which broke the Theodosian Walls were thrown for 1.497km (or so), and weighed 498.9kg (or so), then those "500 kilograms" are "1000 pounds", and "1.5 kilometres" are "1 mile" - because "500 kilograms" and "1.5 kilometres" clearly look like approximations
^^
Do fix the conversion - the correction posted was reverted, and now the article contains the original, cringeful conversion
