Hidden Origins of Timekeeping

By: Avallone, Marcello

This book traces the long human journey of understanding time, from the f irst intuitive recognition of cycles in nature to the intricate systems of modern chronometry. Through archaeology, anthropology, cognitive science, folklore, and contemporary digital life, it uncovers the hidden layers of temporal meaning that still shape our identities, our rituals, and our sense of destiny. Each chapter reveals how ancient intuitions survive beneath modern structures, how forgotten cosmologies echo in language and gesture, and how the act of measuring change continues to mirror both human anxiety and human aspiration. This is a return to the first spark of temporal awareness, a restoration of meaning through origins, and a meditation on the enduring power of cycle, mark, memory, and order.
