Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Embark on a captivating exploration of timekeeping's enigmatic past with this book, delving into the intriguing world of primitive sundials, also known as scratch dials. These unassuming markings, etched onto the walls of ancient churches, have puzzled researchers for centuries. The au…thor unravels the mysteries surrounding these timekeeping relics, dispelling misconceptions and shedding light on their true purpose. Discover how these dials, rather than precisely measuring time, served as practical tools for medieval clergy, guiding them in their daily rituals and prayers. Explore the diverse forms and placements of scratch dials, uncovering the ingenuity of their design and the historical context in which they were created. Learn how their construction, often by local hands rather than skilled craftsmen, reflects the resourcefulness and practicality of medieval communities. Through meticulous analysis and a wealth of illustrations, this book offers a fresh perspective on these often-overlooked historical artifacts. By understanding the purpose and significance of scratch dials, we gain valuable insights into the lives and practices of those who came before us, enriching our appreciation of the enduring legacy of timekeeping. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
