A gnomen stick, also known as a gnomon stick, was used as a simple tool to measure the angle of the sun or stars to determine time of day or season. It was commonly used in ancient civilizations for timekeeping and navigation. The length of the shadow it cast was used to estimate the time of day or position of the sun in the sky.
