Hi, The ‘XIV’ could also refer to the Gregorian epact of the year: then this would fit for 1`915 and 2010.
Rob van Gent From: sundial [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John Foad Sent: woensdag 27 november 2013 16:06 To: Sundial List Subject: Dominical Letter The dial at Marton-cum-Grafton in North Yorkshire has a gnomon engraved with ‘C’ and ‘xiv’, being the Sunday or Dominical Letter, and the Golden Number, for the year of its restoration. I *think* that translates to 1875 (given that the dial is 19th century). Can anyone confirm this? And more interestingly, does anyone have a calculator to show candidate years, given the Sunday Letter and Golden Number? Many thanks for any help, John
