Oooh. I want one. Especially if it can cast magic spells...
The first Roman dodecahedron to be discovered in modern times was found in England in the 18th century, and roughly 120 have been found since then in Great Britain, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

You might find this picture somewhat interesting, I call it “Cairo Transitions”, and it is from about 4 years ago.
It shows a square grid being transformed into a #CairoTiling by emphasizing different edges in a 3D “bent #pentagon” tiling.
The underlying pattern was created based on the fact that #cubes fit nicely into #dodecahedrons (as mentioned by @johncarlosbaez in this recent post https://mathstodon.xyz/@johncarlosbaez/109290809194904775).
There is a chance that you might have seen it at JMM2020.

One iteration of a ring of 5 edge-connected #dodecahedrons forming the "#pentagon" used to make up another "#dodecahedron"
