    Came across an article a few years ago where a college student had figured out that the dodecahedrons were used by Roman soldiers to knit gloves for cold weather. The student made the connection with the knobs on them and through trial and error actually produced a glove. I am surprised that it remains unknown as he supposedly got some kind of award for his discovery.

      No, you're all wrong: The Tigellans used Dodecahedrons as power sources. I know, as I was there once on the planet of Tigella and saw one.

    They were used for making the fingers on gloves. Different sizes for different size fingers. Most were found in cold regions, theres sites that show people demonstrating how they work. this mystery was solved years ago, why these sites keep saying it's a mystery is the only mystery here !!!

    Dichroic Glass - is not a lost art or technology that we are unable to produce today as many oeople seem to think and is oft said in videos of this nature.
    It's expensive and requires much skill to make.

    I find it odd that swords were not invented until that year that he mentions. It would seem, to me, that wooden spears would have been used for years before that. In which case, as soon as iron was avaiable, it would seem that they could have made swords.

    Have some greek sailor look at one to see if bu certain wrapping and twisting you could make dome amazing adjustable knot. Being hollow something should pass through ti. Having the balls on it ensures that something wrapped around it will not have slipping threads ir ropes. Wouldn’t it be cool if it is actually a tool for quickly and easily making fishing bets. Most are way too small though.

    My opinion is the deocaeder are used for distance determine. The different holes are for looking through. If they are in line you can define the distance..... maybe ????

      Sounds reasonable for determining distance. Maybe for navigation even. There are twelve major constellations. Perhaps knobs allowed for aligning them to determine orientation.

    You talk of “tiny increments of paint can still be seen clinging to the (stone sculpture).
    God I hope that they paid an archivist to gather as many chips of the paint as possible, create a 3D laser mapping of the entire piece, indicate where EXACTLY each piece was taken from. And made it a permanent record.

    Dodecahedrons are symbols of 'universal' sacred geometries. Every other form and mathematical ratio can fit into them. 12 sides that are pentagon in shape ( geometry of the brain) with 20 vertices- 20 being the number of the Christ Light. j
    Jesus is always surrounded by 12 disciples as the central vertice- centifugal force around which the twelve evolve and rotate in growth patterns of the soul. It is a cosmic principle also representative of Zodiacal energies.
