[Fred Sawyer]

I am forwarding this note at the request of Nik Severino.  For information on how to obtain the CD he describes, please contact him directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] .   Fred Sawyer   A New CD:   DE MONUMENTIS GNOMONICIS APUD GRAECOS ET ROMANOS Roccasecca, Italy, June 2005   In the next few weeks Nicola Severino will publish a new work in gnomonics about Greek and Roman sundials.  You may remember his last publication on this topic in 2003: “Orologi solari greco-romani. Aggiornamento al catalogo di Sharon Gibbs”.  This second CD-R has more material and includes the results of a great deal of research in several italian archaeological sites.  This work is the largest ever done on the subject after the Gibbs book.   The author was very busy every day for 2 years to assemble this material.   The CD-R has a unique “Microsoft Explorer” file for navigation.
