не так уж очевидно Explanation: Олег, назначение этой комнаты не так уж очевидно, как Вам кажется (разве что это написано в тексте). Насколько я помню по вашим предыдущим вопросам, речь идет о ХШ веке, а тогда в замках не было салонов для светских бесед - времена были другие. Однако в замковых помещениях, находящихся с юго-восточной стороны, зачастую находились солнечные часы и солнечный календарь. Может, это имеется в виду? Взгляните-ка вот на этот сайт: Look again at this slide of Hovenweep Castle, in particular at the wall immediately to the left of and connecting to the large tower. Notice the small port at mid-height. One other port at the same height and a small door can also be picked out on the wall to the right, i.e., running along the canyon edge. Those two ports and the door were likely used to define a solar calendar on the inside wall of the room. Tree-ring dating has shown that this "sun-room" was added in 1277, well after the main part of Hovenweep Castle was completed in 1166, and may wellмhave been designed specifically as a solar observatory. http://www.hao.ucar.edu/public/education/archeoslides/slide_... |
