i don't know about tribes living in remote places but i can say that no one uses sundials to tell the time unless they are having a bit a fun or are just curious or are stuck in the middle of a desert and don't know the time or are a collector(those people would be say about 1 in a million) the sundials still used(rather seen as historic monuments) commonly are the ones you find in town squares and so forth.
There have been many cultures use the sundials over the years. The Egyptians and Mayans both used the sundials. The American government used sundials in the 1830's.

sundials
I do believe so. This is kinda' kool cause i am answering my own question!
Sundials can be found all over the world. Sundials have a long history and are amongst the earliest forms of timekeepers. They have the advantage of requiring no mechanial parts or maintenance- but the obvious disadvantage of only working on a sunny day.
There is no specific date stated as to when sundials were first used.

Sundials are not commonly used today for timekeeping purposes because they are not as accurate as modern timekeeping devices like watches and smartphones. However, sundials are still sometimes used for decorative or educational purposes.
The two types of sundials are altitude and azimuth sundials.

Sundials use the posidtion of the sun to cast a shadow on the dial. You can then read the number on where the shadow falls to get the time. As a result, no, there shouldn't be different types of sundials.
