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
Bilinski dodecahedron Bilinski dodecahedron In geometry, the Bilinski dodecahedron is a 12-sided convex polyhedron with congruent rhombic faces. It has the same topology but different geometry from the face transitive rhombic dodecahedron, another 12-sided polyhedron with congruent rhombic faces. This shape appears in a 1752 book by John Lodge Cowley, labeled as the dodecarhombus. It is named after Stanko Bilinski, who rediscovered it in 1960. Bilinski himself called it the rhombic dodecahedron of the second kind. Bilinski's discovery corrected a 75-year-old omission in Evgraf Fedorov's classification of convex polyhedra with congruent rhombic faces. In the rhombi of the Bilinski dodecahedron, the ratio
