Did You Know?
The minute hand was not added to clocks until the late 17th century - Before that, most clocks only had an hour hand. Accuracy improved only after Christiaan Huygens invented the pendulum clock in 1656, making minute-level precision practically achievable. Before then, knowing the time to the nearest quarter-hour was considered precise enough for most purposes.
