•A sundial is a device that tells the time of day when there is sunlight by the apparent position of the sun in the sky
•In the narrowest sense of the word, it consists of a flat plate (the dial) and a gnomon, which casts a shadow onto the dial.
•As the Sun appears to move  across the sky, the shadow aligns with different hour-lines, which are marked on the dial to indicate the time of day.
•The gnomon casts a broad shadow; the shadow of the style shows the time. The gnomon may be a rod, wire, or elaborately decorated metal casting.

A sundial is made up of two parts: a flat circular plate and a stick called a gnomon. The gnomon casts a shadow on the plate and this shadow shows the time. Before clocks were invented, sundials were the only way to tell the time.
