Description
Excerpted from the website:
- The earliest timepieces date back to 3500 BC. The "shadow clock" or "gnomon" consisted of an obelisk or vertical stick that cast moving shadows, and the ancient Egyptians were the first to divide a day into segments by the light of these markers. In the 14th century, large, mechanical clocks driven by heavy weights began to appear in bell towers. As these clocks featured only one hand, they were not very accurate.
