Does your sundial match you watch time?

As the Sun moves across the sky (actually, it's the Earth turning), the shadows cast by objects move in the opposite direction. A sundial has a piece called a gnomen, and its shadow moves across marked sections for the hours. Because sundials were invented in the Northern Hemisphere, where the Sun appears in the southern part of the sky most of the year, the shadow moves "clockwise."
