The unusual story<\/a> about a piece of ancient bronze discovered among the study material in the Archaeology Department of the Regional Museum Jagodina, to which Prof. Miroslav Vujovi\u0107 of the Archeology Department at the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade has breathed new life, did not end with its publication in the last yearly review of the National Museum in Belgrade (M. Vujovi\u0107, Roman Dodecahedron from the National Museum in Jagodina<\/em>, Zbornik Narodnog muzeja XXV\/1 (2021) 251-262). This small fragment of a bronze object identified by Prof. Vujovi\u0107 as a corner of a regular twelve-sided polyhedron \u2013 i.e. dodecahedron (\u03b4\u03c9\u03b4\u03b5\u03ba\u03ac\u03b5\u03b4\u03c1\u03bf\u03bd), the most perfect of Plato\u2019s five solids, actually belonged to a device that has attracted attention of archaeologists, astronomers, and mathematicians for three centuries, and its purpose still remains elusive.<\/p>

Through research of Prof. Vujovi\u0107 this mystical object received ideal reconstruction and possible typological and chronological identification, attracting attention not only of professionals but also numerous admirers of archaeology, among them our famous comic author Sa\u0161a Rakezi\u0107 alias Aleksandar Zograf<\/a>. In recent years, this internationally recognized artist has grown into one of the most interesting promoters of our archaeological heritage, which he has been presenting to the readers of the \u201cVreme\u201d weekly for many years in form of art comics.<\/p>

We are especially proud that the hero of one of the latest archeological comics by Aleksandar Zograf, published in \u201cVreme\u201d No. 1650 (August 18, 2022) and titled \u201cRoman Dodecahedron\u201d, was indeed the exhibit from the Regional Museum in Jagodina, and which in the most vivid way stressed the role and importance of all individuals in preserving our cultural heritage. This issue of Zograf\u2019s comic also is a proper tribute to Radovan Petrovi\u0107 (1955-2018), a former curator of the Collection of Greek and Roman Antiquities in the Regional Museum Jagodina who, though a quiet man but excellent connoisseur of Roman archaeology, and who actually recognized this bronze piece must have had much higher significance during ancient times which later paved the way for future researchers…<\/p>
