Was there an alternative adjective to “clockwise” other than “the rotation you take around left hand”?

Also, how did all watch companies around the world agree on what the direction of “clockwise” is?

    Yes but, how did people know that time went sunwise before the sun?

    Back before the solar system was fully formed, it was called “gaswise”.
