The old concepts of time were substantially different from modern ones. Before the 13-14th century the devices for time measurement were a rarity and a luxury. Even the scientists didn’t always possess them. The Englishman Valcherius… was lamenting the lack of a clock that afflicted the precision of his observations of a lunar eclipse in 1091. The clocks common for mediaeval Europe were sundials, hourglasses, and water clocks, or clepsydrae. However, sundials only were of use when the weather was good, and the clepsydrae remained a scarcity. In the end of the 9th century a.d., candles were widely used for timekeeping. The English King Alfred took them along on his journeys and ordered them to be burned one after the other. The monks kept count of time by the amount of holy book pages or psalms they could read in between two observations of the sky…For excerpt, TOC, 'Search Inside' and reviews click on AMAZON.COM link in TrueChronology channel.

Habria que ver si el nombre ha sido adaptado a nuestro idioma, como en el caso de "Cristobal Colon". Creo que depende de cuan frecuentemente se lo utilliza.
| | Hinweise an den Beantworter der Frage
Fragesteller: Estoy de acuerdo contigo en que la regla de que no se traducen los nombres, no es absoluta. Ejemplos como el de Colón>Columbus hay miles. Sin embargo al parecer el señor Valcherius es tan poco conocido que no merece la pena traducir su nombre. Gracias, Alejandro
