Archimedean solids

This article page is a stub, please help by expanding it.

The 13 Archimedean solids are the semi-regular convex polyhedrons composed of two or more types of regular polygons meeting in identical vertices. They are distinct from the Platonic solids, which are composed of only one type of polygon meeting in identical vertices, and from the Johnson solids, whose regular polygonal faces do not meet in identical vertices.
