- A sundial is a horological instrument that uses the apparent location of the Sun in the sky to tell the time of day when there is sunshine.
- It is made up of a flat plate (the dial) and a gnomon that casts a shadow on the dial in the most literal meaning of the word.
- The shadow of the Sun moves across the sky, aligning with various hour-lines on the dial to show the time of day.
- Although a single point or nodus may be utilized, the style is the gnomon's time-telling edge.
- The gnomon throws a large shadow, and the time is shown by the shadow of the style.
- The gnomon can be made out of a rod, wire, or an ornately carved metal casting.
