Sundial

On this quadrant, we can
find not just one, but two lemniscates, the figure-eight curved
lines that indicate the adjustment of the solar time to the
average, when the tip of the shadow falls onto them. On this
sundial, it is not necessary to add the second adjustment (Time
of the fuse, equal to about 7 minutes for Joannis), because the
quadrant was built in a way which already takes such difference
into account. |
