Compound Of Ten Octahedra
These uniform polyhedron compounds are symmetric arrangements of 10 octahedra, considered as triangular antiprisms, aligned with the axes of three-fold rotational symmetry of an icosahedron. The two compounds differ in the orientation of their octahedra: each compound may be transformed into the other by rotating each octahedron by 60 degrees.
