Good guess and one out in the stratosphere. I will say coyote101 is pretty close. It is a multi-faced or polyhedral sundial, with 29 gnomons (the parts that cast shadows), this device demonstrates the craftman's interest in solving intricate puzzles, rather than any practical application of his knowledge.
I don't think that it gets much sunlight in that case.

Jim, a candle was used to tell time at night or on overcast days when the sun didn't shine.
