There is another honeycomb in hyperbolic 3-space called the order-4 dodecahedral honeycomb which has only four dodecahedra per edge. These honeycombs are also related to the 120-cell which can be considered as a honeycomb in positively-curved space (the surface of a 4 dimensional sphere), with three dodecahedra on each edge.
There are nine uniform honeycombs in the Coxeter group family, including this regular form. Also the bitruncated form, t1,2{5,3,5}, of this honeycomb has all truncated icosahedron cells.
The Seifert–Weber space is a compact manifold that can be formed as a quotient space of the order-5 dodecahedral honeycomb.

Famous quotes containing the word related:
“Perhaps it is nothingness which is real and our dream which is non-existent, but then we feel think that these musical phrases, and the notions related to the dream, are nothing too. We will die, but our hostages are the divine captives who will follow our chance. And death with them is somewhat less bitter, less inglorious, perhaps less probable.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
