Roman Dodecahedrons: The Ancient Objects No One Can Explain
About this episode
The Roman Dodecahedrons are one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of the Roman Empire. Found across Europe, these small bronze objects feature twelve sides, circular holes, and no clear purpose.
In this episode of The Strange History Podcast, we explore the Roman world, where these artifacts were discovered, the leading theories behind their use, and why historians still can’t explain them.
Were they tools, measuring devices, ritual objects… or something else entirely?
