What Time is it?
● What time does this clock show? And your own watch?
This sundial is made up of a vertical stone dial and a metal gnomon.
The gnomon is tilted at a 37° angle from the horizontal - the same as our latitude - and the dial is positioned so that its shadow points to 12 o’clock at solar noon, showing solar time.
