Rome Dodecahedron

Hello,

I would like to ask someone’s out there opinion about for what was used Rome dodecahedron. I have one idea, but I think, people who works with a metal could tell more. It’s possible that Rome dodecahedron was used for to make decorative shapes for solder’s uniform?

Little balls around can be used for stabilization. How I understood the metal can be can withstand heavy blows. Therefore, some dodecahedrons are concave inwards.

What do you think about it?

Watch the video – it looks very similar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwzcQDNfW4I

Marks for studs or dents

Look inside from behind too. There is the same shape like on dodecahedron.

The same shape on the sword’s case.
