The modern, detailed system of time measurement (hours, minutes, seconds etcetera) had not been invented, and in any case there was no way of measuring it.
Most ancient peoples simply judged the passage of each day by the position of the sun, and the length of shadows. Some civilizations, such as Egypt, used a form of sundial to more accurately judge time by shadows. The Obelisks of Egypt are an early form of sundial, and the Ancient Greeks refined and greatly developed this simple technology. Some historians have claimed that one of the functions of Stonehenge and other such structures was to be a sundial, but this is unknown for certain.
Ancient Greece influenced much of the modern world and other civilizations of the time. The Roman Empire would have a very different religion without the Ancient Greeks.
Sundial
People worshiped Zeus in the time of Ancient Greece and the great Greek Empire
people saw people fighting all the time. and they got nude
Older civilizations tended to be far more relaxed about time than we are, and "days" were pretty much the smallest denomination they cared about. When higher resolution was needed the height of the sun was usually sufficient.
they used the sun
With watches and clocks.
Sundials were used to tell time, back without watches.
Watches are traditionally made with the winder on the right side because historically, people wore watches on their left wrist and used their right hand to wind them. This design made it easier for right-handed individuals to adjust the time on their watches.
because it is time to give it up!
Clocks. Sundials.
People who can't tell the time of day from the possition of the sun in the sky, and don't like being late.Answer:Recent studies have shown that younger (under 30's people aren't buying watches as they already have several time sources at hands (cellphones etc.).That leaves watches as the purview of:older folks (for time information)people who see watches as a fashion statement (bling)people who see watches (the expensive types) as a power statementpeople working in environments (wet, acid, dusyty) that would destroy "soft" electronic devices
What people wore in ancient time varied from civilisation to civilisation.
five watches plus two dog watches totalling seven watches in a day in nautical time.
Approximately 20-25% of people globally wear watches regularly, but this percentage can vary depending on the region and age group. In recent years, the popularity of wearing traditional watches has declined with the rise of smartwatches and the use of smartphones to check the time.
how did people in ancient greek spend their time
watches kind of like compasses!
