"The custom of dividing each day into 24 parts seems to have originated with the ancient Egyptians in about 3500 B.C.. They divided daylight and darkness into periods of 12 hours each. But this meant that the length of each hour changed during the year as the nights lengthened and shortened. It was Babylonian astronomers who, in about 300 B.C., adopted the now universal practice of making all 24 hours equal in length, regardless of when the sun rose or set. In Europe, however, equal hours did not become standard until about A.D. 1350, some 70 years after the introduction of mechanical clocks."
