Summary

[edit]
Description Ancient Roman dodecahedron found in Atuatuca Tungrorum (Tongeren). It's a small hollow object made of bronze or stone with a dodecahedral shape. Its use is still unclear and several proposals have been made including an aid for knitting gloves and a device for determining the optimal sowing date for winter grain. Collection of Gallo-Romeins Museum, Tongeren, Belgium.
