History The Egyptians invented the first sundial around 3500 BC These were obelisks that caused a shadow

Discuss: Why is this fact so important? Smaller Sundials The Egyptians then invented another sundial around 1500 BC This divided the day into 10 parts and 2 twilight hours Discuss: Why is this fact so important?
