The Egyptian shadow clock, also known as a sundial, functioned by using the position of the sun to cast a shadow on a flat surface marked with time divisions. A vertical stick, or gnomon, was placed in the center, and as the sun moved across the sky, the shadow it cast would move along the markings to indicate the time of day. This method relied on the sun's position, making it effective only during daylight hours and on sunny days. The Egyptians used this device to organize their daily activities and rituals based on the passage of time.
