History of Antique Clocks

Ever wonder about how clocks came into being? How they have now come to dominate our lives? There is a great article over at Antique Clocks that will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about the History of Antique Clocks up to about the 1700's. With the advent of the Industrial Revolution, everything changed anyway.

It covers early time keeping devices as well as the impetus behind the development of clocks (you may be surprised!). There's also a pretty interesting tidbit about how grandfather clocks came to be (always important to an Edward Meyer Grandfather Clock lover!).

Check it out and give it a read. You might find it pretty interesting, especially if you like Antique Clocks, Antique Wall Clocks, or Antique Style Wall Clocks in general. The site is new so content is sparce but it appears more is on the way.
