well here was one method..not the one your seeking (and this was in reverse for a miracle).

I will make the shadow cast by the sun go back the ten steps it has gone down on the stairway of Ahaz.'" So the sunlight went back the ten steps it had gone down. Isaiah 38:8

The way I understand it the Jews divided daylight into 12hrs, according to the season an hr would be longer or shorter than our 60 minutes, except 2 days a year . The dark or night was divided into 4 ''watches''

Between the 3rd watch beginning the 4th watch of the night a trumpet was blown . What did the Jews call that blowing of the trumpet ?

Hmm.... given that it was about 3 AM in the morning if I work it out correctly.... perhaps "very annoying".   ;)

Perhaps, I know I used to listen to roosters crow and If I needed to get up, it was good, If I didn't I could get up and pee then go back to bed and the crowing didn't bother me, actually it was soothing .. Which is the answer to the question as I understand it they called that trumpet blow the ''cockcrow''
