Water clocks were among the earliest timekeepers that didn't depend on the observation of celestial bodies. Water clocks were used in ancient Babylon, Mesopotami, China, Korea, Egypt, Greece, India, Arabia, Muslim and civilizations. Later they were named clepsydras ('water thief') by the Greeks, who began using them about 325 B.C.
