Κλεψύδρα | Klepsydra or Clepsydra:
The klepsydra, or water clock, was a mechanism developed in ancient Greece to solve the problem created by the limited power of the sundial, the first timekeeping device, which could only work when the sun was out.
Greek word κλεψύδρα from κλέπτειν kleptein, 'to steal'; ὕδωρ hydor, 'water' - is any timepiece by which time is measured by the regulated flow of liquid into (inflow type) or out from (outflow type) a vessel, and where the amount is then measured.
During the 4th century, klepsydra’s use was widely spread in public places in Ancient Greece, most often used in courts, to limit the speech time of lawyers and witnesses. Many other civilizations would soon adopt this time-keeping technology, also making a great effort to advance it even further. The klepsydra would eventually lead to the development of the mechanical and digital clock.

π | pi:
The number π (3.14159265359...) is a mathematical constant. It is defined as the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, and it also has various equivalent definitions.
