Hi Peter & all, Following your posting last November, I have contacted Mohammad Bagheri. With his information and pictures, and the stimulating help of Reinhold Kriegler from Bremen, I have added a page about this new dial to my site. Actually two pages, as the pictures on the construction and inauguration are on a second page, linked from the first one.
You may have a look at www.fransmaes.nl/sundials/, and take the Index to Rasht, or go to the Analemmatic page and scroll all the way down for the Rasht thumbnail. I wish to express my admiration for the group of people who, despite severe political uncertainties including war and threat of war in neighboring countries, have the courage and sense of responsibility to put so much effort into the study and dissemination of these universal cultural treasures of mankind. Best regards, Frans Maes 53.1N, 6.5E ----- Original Message ----- From: "peter ransom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <sundial@rrz.uni-koeln.de> Sent: Sunday, November 03, 2002 10:56 AM Subject: A new sundial group > Mohammad Bagheri, one of my contacts in the history and pedagogy of > mathematics sent me the following details about a new sundial group in Iran. > > I also have a picture of the analemmatic dial.
