The bottom left as hell/Hades is problematic for me. We have a field of stars with something in the middle, which means this takes place in the sky. The thing in the middle is similar to certain representations of the celestial North Pole, as I've shown in the blog. Moreover, the emblem would make for a bad clock, there are eight divisions, not twelve, and the point where the hands are fixed is very far off centre. (Also I think someone commented that they didn't use a second hand yet). I didn't necessarily think it was a compass, but I found David's explanation of the way a water compass will drift to the North rather convincing.
