So. a hippodrome is where the horses run (the racetrack), and a heliodrome is where the sun runs? That is nice; I like it. Rudolf Hooijenga 52-30N 4-40E Van: sundial Namens fabio.sav...@nonvedolora.it Verzonden: zondag 17 maart 2019 20:17 CC: sundial@uni-koeln.de Onderwerp: Heliodrome

Dear Frank every sundial has an heliodrome but its limits change with the orientation of the dial, its shape and other if it isn't plane. I took a glance to the last sundials uploaded on Sundial Atlas in these days and I found a photo that is right for us. (IT16648, photo by Roberto Incerti)

Dear Fabio, Many thanks for your most interesting message to the list... > Years ago Nicola Severino found > 'eliodromo' in a book of Athanasius > Kircher... Can you provide a photograph of an eliodromo? OR, perhaps, a photograph of a suitable sundial with the region of the eliodromo highlight
