Lady Reylari of, Athens, Egypt,
Rome, Babylon, and Celtia_serves the needs of the goddess in everywoman. Her herbs and ungents
are acquired from the four coners of the Ancient World. *Classics for all times and from the heart of it all*
At one time I lived very close to the Tower of the Eight Winds. It is here that I first learned to be a time traveler. This is the ancient water clock of Andronicas it has been here for thousands of years.
The Macedonian astronomer, Andronikos, supervised the construction of his Horologion, known today as the Tower of the Winds, in the Athens marketplace in the first half of the first century BCE. This octagonal structure showed scholars and shoppers both sundials and mechanical hour indicators. It featured a 24 hour mechanized clepsydra and indicators for the eight winds from which the tower got its name, and it displayed the seasons of the year and astrological dates and periods. The Romans also developed mechanized clepsydras, though their complexity accomplished little improvement over simpler methods for determining the passage of time.
