<< I was watching a news bulletin about the sunken ship
"Mary Rose".  They raised her a few years ago, but they have just found some
more of the ship and her treasures.  One of those pieces of treasure, was a
portable sundial, a tiny little thing, and still in pretty good shape since
it's been lying on the sea bed for approximately 400 years! It was
commissioned by Henry VIII.>>


There is a good web site about the Mary Rose.  Nine sundials were found on
it. See:
