00:00Benjamin Banneker Black History Clock.
00:02The clock that Banneker built in 1752 garnered public acclaim for the fact that it was made
00:07entirely from wood.
00:09In addition to keeping precise time for decades, the clock is believed to be the first built
00:13in America.
00:14In 1789, Banneker began to make astronomical calculations, which enabled him to accurately
00:20predict a solar eclipse that would take place in the following year.
