WallClock Evolution
WallClocks have become an integral part of human
culture. The birds and animals use the sun and moon or stars to
know the time to go hunting for food and return back to their nests
or caves for the night when light fades. Amazingly, when there is a
solar eclips almost all the animals and birds start returning back
to their nests. The become wiser when the solar eclips is over and
start as if it was early morning again. Human beings are much more
advanced beings and believe in using instruments like a wallclock
to measure time. Human beings have been dong time keeping from
prehistoric time. Initially the humans used the sun and moon like
the birds. Then they gained some knowledge and started using some
vertical object and its shadow to measure time which evolved into a
Sun Dial. Then the modern WallClock evolved. Initially we used
water and sand, then we graduated to a pendulum wallclock and then
to the quartz wallclock. The time involved to graduate from sun to
wallclock is fairly long.
