| | Nomenclature (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) |
 | | Just as the five Platonic polyhedra are basal to naming the 13 nonprismatic Archimedean polyhedra, so are the six regular polychora basal to naming the 40 nonprismatic Archimedean polychora. |
 | | The six regular polychora I call the pentachoron (with 5 tetrahedral cells), tesseract (with 8 cubic cells), hexadecachoron (with 16 tetrahedral cells), icositetrachoron (with 24 octahedral cells), hecatonicosachoron (with 120 dodecahedral cells), and hexacosichoron (with 600 tetrahedral cells). |
 | | For example, the Bowers name for the dispentachoron is rap, short for rectified pentachoron, which is Norman Johnsons name for polychoron [2] in my table. |
