See Tower of the Winds, Athens, Greece
The eight-sided Tower of the Winds at the edge of the Roman Agora (marketplace) was built around 50 BCE (or possibly even in the 2nd century BCE). The frieze around the top depicts the eight wind deities. A wind vane on the top, sundials on each side, and a water clock inside made this a combination meteorological station and clock tower.
