The Romans followed the standard sundial method of telling time for the most part. They also had water clocks, but only the wealthy could afford them. In reality, most Romans simply looked up at the sun to see what time it was. Julius Caesar, however, reorganized the calendar for the calculation of dates and years and his calendar, called the Julian calendar, is the basis for our present day calendar.
The printing dates back to China date from 220, and from Egypt to the 4th century.
Different birth dates were given by Roman historians. Modern historians use 272 as the year of his birth: 27 February 272

The first mechanical clocks were invented in Europe in the late 13th century. The oldest known mechanical clock still in existence is the Salisbury Cathedral clock, which dates back to 1386.
The first portable watches were invented in the 16th century. The earliest known watch dates back to 1530s and gradually evolved from spring-powered clocks.
Clocks are technically one of the oldest inventions, originating in ancient history. Some of the oldest early clocks that we know of date back to 16th century BC, but true dates of origin are unknown. The first mechanical clock was created in 1360 AD by Henry de Vick for King Charles V of France.

The concept of measuring time and building devices to keep track of it dates back to ancient civilizations. The first mechanical clocks were invented in Europe in the 14th century, evolving from earlier timekeeping devices like sundials and water clocks. These early clocks were large, weight-driven machines that used gears and escapements to regulate the movement of the hands. Over time, clockmaking technology advanced, leading to the development of more precise and portable timepieces.
