Excavated dodecahedron triangle is not present. The 20 vertices of the convex hull match the vertex arrangement of the dodecahedron. The faceting is a noble polyhedron. With six six-sided faces around each vertex, it is topologically equivalent to a quotient space of the hyperbolic order-6 hexagonal tiling, {6,6} and is an abstract type {6,6}. It is one of ten abstract regular polyhedra of index two with vertices on one orbit. Excavated dodecahedron In geometry, the excavated dodecahedron is a star polyhedron having 60 equilateral triangular faces. Its exterior surface represents the Efg stellation of the icosahedron. It appears in Magnus Wenninger's book
Regular dodecahedron dodecahedra were made and have been found in various Roman ruins in Europe. Their purpose is not certain. In 20th-century art, dodecahedra appear in the work of M. C. Escher, such as his lithographs "Reptiles" (1943) and "Gravitation" (1952). In Salvador Dalí's painting "The Sacrament of the Last Supper" (1955), the room is a hollow regular dodecahedron. Gerard Caris based his entire artistic oeuvre on the regular dodecahedron and the pentagon, which is presented as a new art movement coined as Pentagonism. In modern role-playing games, the regular dodecahedron is often used as a twelve-sided die, one of the more
