Clocks Through The Ages
Nowadays, we take time for granted, but the situation has not always been like this. Before time could be measured ancient people had no way to measure the passage of time except for the movement of the sun in the sky and the moon and night? Did time matter to people in the same way? Were they even aware of it? How did they get the first idea to make ancient clocks?
Children can often be fascinated by ancient clock or clocks which appear ancient which these days means mechanical rather than digital. The modern cuckoo clock often has visible clockwork in the back and a miniature cuckoo that will come out when the hour strikes. Any mechanical timepieces can be something of a novelty in families which don't have heirloom grandfather clocks. Children will often stare at the clockwork, marvelling at the mechanical precision with which each second is ticked off in turn. This can be a fascinating thing in a way that a quartz watch never can be.
The first clock was probably the sundial for which various designs and decorations were developed. Before the sundial, no one had probably thought about measuring the passage of the sun in the sky. It was something you could estimate by eye, but it was not related to any units of time. Once it was actually being measured with a stake and lines, however, people could start thinking about time as something that can be quantified and divided. It was the start of a whole new way of thought.
After the sundial, ancient clocks got pretty complicated pretty quickly. There were simple ancient water clocks used by the Greeks and other civilizations which measure the passage of time by the seeping of water into a bowl, but these gave way to more complicated devices involving huge towers and constant streams of water to keep the time. Studying schematics of these ancient clocks can often be fascinating.
In the Middle Ages the first clockwork clocks were developed which rapidly increased in complexity. From great public timepieces for the Churches and major buildings the methods were developed to provide timepieces for the home. Devices such as modern Musical Cuckoo Clocks are probably the ultimate development of the history of mechanical devices. Many of these are hand crafted in Germany.
