Hi Dan,

 

Well spotted!  However, neither the horizontal sundial nor the hourglass was 
invented until the Middle Ages. Yet another example of Hollywood making up 
history!

Hello,

 

I've spotted a horizontal sundial in the new biblical drama film Risen (2016). 
You can see it in different scenes starting about half an hour into the movie. 
It's alongside a hourglass on a desk belonging to Roman tribune Clavius, the 
main character. I'm attaching a screenshot.
