A legionary distributes small bronze objects of no recorded purpose across three provinces, for reasons the artifact's title makes clear. Over one hundred have been excavated. None have been explained. The score stands.
The title is printed 'DODECAHEDRRONS,' double R, on the original. The registrar has elected to believe this, too, was deliberate. Under review.
