This essay explores the Northern Hemisphere bias in gnomonics and common perceptions, such as clockwise movements. The author describes his quest for Southern Hemisphere sundial information, noting the lack of specific literature and the 'anticlockwise' appearance of the sun and shadows there. He recounts finding an 'upside down' map of New Zealand, illustrating the profound difference in perspective for Southern Hemisphere dwellers.
