Primitive Time-Reckoning: A Study in the Origins and First Development of the Art of Counting Time Among the Primitive and Early Culture Peoples is a scholarly work written by Martin Persson Nilsson and published in 1920. The book explores the history of time-keeping practices among early cultures and primitive societies. Nilsson examines the different methods used by these cultures to measure time, including the use of natural phenomena such as the movements of the sun and moon, the seasons, and the stars. He also discusses the development of more advanced time-keeping systems, such as the use of calendars and the invention of the clock. The book provides a detailed analysis of the cultural and social factors that influenced the development of time-keeping practices in different societies. It is a valuable resource for historians, anthropologists, and anyone interested in the history of time-keeping and the development of human civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
