I need help. Does anyone know of sundials in Greece, particularly Northern Greece. On my last trip - ten years ago - I used Gibbs' "Greek and Roman Sundials" but couldn't find any in the places we visited; I did however come across a horizontal dial in a large park in Athens.
Thanks for your help,
Hal Brandmaier
Dear Hal,
I am sure, the German top specialist about old Greek sundials can help you! He had given a lecture about Greek sundials of the Byzantine era during the conference of <Arbeitskreis Sonnenuhren> in May in Vorderbüchelberg. I could not join the meeting, but have seen a video-tape of all lectures. I remember that almost all of these sundials are well hidden in Greek museum depots.

If you take photos, I would be happy about the one or other copy via Internet!
May I also point your attention to a new obviously brilliant CD-ROM about old Greek and Roman sundials, which is edited and sold by the well-known Italian Gnomonist and author of many books and articles concerning sundials:
Nicola Severino.
Orologi Solari Greco Romani
If you are interested, I can send the image of the cover and the description of the CD-ROM to you. I would also like to take the chance to mention a previous CD-ROM from Nicola Severino, in which he has collected all his essays and books: NICOLA SEVERINO, GNOMONICES OPERA OMNIA, 2001
For orders of the CD-ROMs please contact Nicola directly: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Best wishes
