La meridiana è una linea orizzontale che passa per i punti Nord e Sud. Meridiana, nella nostra lingua, è anche sinonimo di orologio solare. Dall'antichità ai giorni nostri sono stati realizzati orologi solari diversi per tipo, forma e dimensioni, come ad esempio modelli portatili che svolgevano le funzioni dei nostri orologi da polso e da tasca. Popoli diversi e diverse culture hanno poi adottato vari modi di misura del tempo in rapporto alle loro necessità: infatti si possono ancora osservare meridiane antiche che non seguono le ore che usiamo oggi (ore astronomiche) ma, ad esempio, ore babiloniche, ore italiche, ore canoniche, ecc.
