Elongated square gyrobicupola
In geometry, the elongated square gyrobicupola is a polyhedron constructed by two square cupolas attaching onto the bases of octagonal prism, with one of them rotated. It is also known as pseudo-rhombicuboctahedron because many mathematicians mistakenly constructed a rhombicuboctahedron. It is not considered to be an Archimedean solid because it lacks a set of global symmetries that map every vertex to every other vertex, unlike the 13 Archimedean solids. It is also a canonical polyhedron.
