Time, Stonehenge and Sundials

Purchase: http://hilaroad.com/video
A short video moving through the history of human attempts to measure and record time. Daniel Boorstin, author of "The Discoverers" commented that "The first grand discovery was time, the landscape of experience." This video is intended as an introduction to the three accompanying videos on designing and constructing sundials: The four videos in this series are "Time - 1", "Our Planet is a Clock - 2", "Sundials and Latitude - 3" and "Create a Sundial - 4"

´Time´is just a human tool/instrument & only as such does it exist. According to modern quant theories everything is happening at the same time/simultaneously .

time is synchronisation. Thats its purpuse and reason of existance. Not as an entity it self but as a mean of synchronisation between other entitys. (Humans, Seasons. Speed: distance per timemesure....etc) imagine a buisness date without time mesuring. Time is artificial, so is coca cola, but it doesnt mean it doesnt exist.

Yea, that's what I believe, I don't believe in the theory of time travel, because I believe time is a human made thing, but in reality everything is just happening when it happens if that makes sense...

i went to London and saw that...quit spooky, i never got to find out in person if it keeps time since it was raining and the sun wasn't shining....twice...

Hi

Great video, but I do not believe there is such a thing as time, and I think I can prove it. It was invented or developed to bring some order to the chaos, and stone henge was not to record it, but to give a basis for time keeping, along with other stone circles. Nothing moves through time, everything is changing in one place, takes some getting your head round, but it has to be so.
