How Did We Get 60 Seconds?

How Did We Get 60 Seconds? Have you ever wondered why there are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour? People often take this for granted because it has been this way for thousands of years. If you can believe it, the ordering of our clocks took place nearly 4,000 years ago. Our clocks work on intervals of sixty because that is how the Sumerians and Babylonians did it. The ancient Babylonians began codifying their astronomical beliefs and findings in the 14th century BCE, or 3400 years ago. It is from these calculations and assumptions that we get many of our most basic and common numbers.
