How Did the Concept of Time Begin?

Imagine living in a world where there were no clocks or calendars, just the sun, the moon, and the stars. That’s how people used to tell time! Early humans noticed that the sun moved across the sky every day, so they started counting days by watching it rise and set. They also saw how the moon changed shape each month, which helped them track longer periods of time. Over time, people began making sundials, candle clocks, and even water clocks to count minutes and hours more accurately. These simple tools laid the foundation for our modern way of telling time.
