This kind is an analemmatic sundial which is described in several 
introductory books to sundials. It gives the time by the suns azimuth. 
Because the solar time is not only depending on the suns azimuth but also 
on the suns declination (varying seasonally), the gnomon (i.e. the 
person) has to take a special position within the sundial which is 
marked e.g. with the firsts of each month.
