Clock time is not what most people think it is. It was created, and it is frequently altered and adjusted to fit social and political purposes.
Cultures observing both linear and cyclic concepts of time see the past as something we have put behind us and the future as something that lies before us.
But while nature may mete out time’s passage in these horological devices, it takes human observation of the heavens to set them. Even the most precise atomic clock must be periodically tweaked to account for variations in the earth’s rotation. Some clocks, however, are tuned more directly to nature.
