Type Uniform compound
Uniform polyhedron compound
A uniform polyhedron compound is a polyhedral compound whose constituents are identical uniform polyhedra, in an arrangement that is also uniform: the symmetry group of the compound acts transitively on the compound's vertices.The uniform polyhedron compounds were first enumerated by John Skilling...
