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
Rhombic dodecahedron Rhombic dodecahedron In geometry, the rhombic dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron with 12 congruent rhombic faces. It has 24 edges, and 14 vertices of two types. It is a Catalan solid, and the dual polyhedron of the cuboctahedron. The rhombic dodecahedron is a zonohedron. Its polyhedral dual is the cuboctahedron. The long diagonal of each face is exactly times the length of the short diagonal, so that the acute angles on each face measure arccos(), or approximately 70.53°. Being the dual of an Archimedean polyhedron, the rhombic dodecahedron is face-transitive, meaning the symmetry group of the solid acts transitively on
