Dear Ronit Maoz and all SML members,

Other sundials above columns represented on mosaics :
-       Antioch, Turkey
-       Saint-Romain-en-Gal, France

Armillary spheres:
-       Solunto, Sicily(mosaic)
-       Vienne, France (painting)
-       Stabia, Italy (painting)

For both topics, rich literature in Guadalupe Lopez
Monteagudo and Maria Pilar San Nicolas Pedraz "Los
Sabios y la Ciencia en los mosaicos romanos" in
L'Africa romana, Atti dell'XI convegno di studio,
Cartagine, 1994( 1996) 71-110.

As for sundials'representations on sarcophagi, several
pieces chiefly in Italy, location and bibliography in
G. Traversari "Il "Pelecinum"- Un particolare tipo di
orologio solare raffigurato su alcuni rilievi di
sarcophagi di eta romana", in Archeologia e
astronomia, Colloquio internazionale, Venezia 1989
(1991), 6-73, plates XII-XV.

Best regards.
