Large spangled dodecahedron

In Geometry, the large dodecahedron spangled is a Solide of Kepler-Poinsot . It is one of the four regular polyhedrons nonconvex.

It is composed of 12 pentagrammic faces, with three Pentagramme S meeting at each top.

The 20 tops have the same provision that one finds in a regular Dodécaèdre.

The fact of removing the triangular pyramids gives a Icosaèdre.

If the pentagrammic faces are broken in triangles, it is connected topologically to the Triaki-icosahedron, with the same connectivity of faces, but with isosceles triangular faces larger.

Like a stellation

It can also be built like the third of the three Stellation S of the dodecahedron, and referred under the model of Wenninger [W22].
