An ancient Roman dodecahedron, which was discovered by amateur archaeologists in Lincolnshire, UK, last year, has been displayed at the Lincoln Museum in Lincoln, UK, for the first time. This 12-sided artefact is believed to be around 1,700 years old and is among the largest dodecahedrons ever discovered. It weighs around 254gms and is around 8cms tall. Experts who study dodecahedrons are uncertain about what exactly these objects were used for. The dodecahedron will remain on display at the Lincoln Museum until early September.
