Catalan solid


deltoidal hexecontahedron
Deltoidal hexacontahedron
A polyhedron that is a dual of an Archimedean solid. (A dual of a polyhedron is obtained by replacing each face with a vertex, and each vertex with a face.) Catalan solids are named after the Belgian mathematician Eugène Catalan (1814-1894) who first described them in 1865.
