To all:

   Could someone please help a floundering beginner in the fascinating 
world of gnomonics? I have two questions.

1. First, what is the purpose of the horizon ring in an armillary 
sphere? and

2. How does one calculate the zodiac lines on a horizontal dial?

Any help would be appreciated. I am a schoolteacher who has been 
recently "illuminated" by gnomonics, and look forward to passing along 
my interest to my students. Sincerest thanks.

                                              Ruby Astarte
