The Hermannus Astrolabium / Das Hermann Astrolabium

A flat Armillarsphaere from the 11th century! Hermann actually wrote a book on how to build and use such a thing, he must have been so clever, to me it is just an obscure but decorative Object. / Eine flache Armillarsphaere aus dem 11ten Jahrhundert. Der Hermann schrieb darueber tatsaechlich ein ganzes Buch, wie man es baut und benutzt. Er muss so clever gewesen sein, fuer mich ist das nur ein huebsches mysterioeses Dekorationsstueck.

Hermann was an interesting guy, kind like an other Hawking just 1000 years earlier.
