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
Tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron triangles are always equilateral, while the quadrilaterals are irregular, although the two adjacent edges that meet at the vertices of a tetrahedron are equal. As a self-dual hexadecahedron, it is one of 302404 forms, 1476 with at least order 2 symmetry, and the only one with tetrahedral symmetry. As a diminished regular dodecahedron, with 4 vertices removed, the quadrilaterals faces are trapezoids. As a stellation of the regular icosahedron it is one of 32 stellations defined with tetrahedral symmetry. It has kite faces. In Conway polyhedron notation, it can represented as pT, applying George W. Hart's propeller operator to a
