I did too, but this worked for me:

An exciting find in the Jamestown excavation - a 17th century diptych dial.

See the article at:

Be sure to view the video that shows the actual uncovering of the dial and the reverse engineering that determined the latitude for which it was made. Note that the dialing scale the archeologist is using is a NASS scale I provided to members many years ago at the first NASS conference. (BTW if you haven't yet sent in your registration for this year's conference in Asheville NC, please do it soon!) I believe the instructions he was using came from the Compendium article by Steve Woodbury.
