Description
The oldest printed illustration of a water clock (clepsydras) in any culture, from a Sung edition of the Liu Ching T'u of Yang Chia (c A.D. 1155), enlarged by Mao Pang-Han (c. A.D. 1170). This is a drawing of the archaic inflow type of camp clepsydra described in the Chou Li, with a torch beside it to ward off the frost.
