Archimedes’ Stomachion – Wooden Puzzle for all – A true logic game, Far more than just a Tangram –

AN ORIGINAL GIFT – Looking for something truly different? The Stomachion isn’t a puzzle you solve once and set aside. It offers hundreds of possible solutions — and finding them is a real challenge. ART & INGENUITY – In 2003, mathematician Bill Cutler used computer analysis to prove that these 14 pieces can form 536 different square solutions. Many experts believe that exploring this simple puzzle allowed Archimedes to anticipate ideas in combinatorial mathematics—concepts that wouldn’t be fully developed for another 2,000 years! A GAME FOR ALL AGES – This wooden puzzle is suitable for both adults and children, perfect for enjoying alone or with family and friends. Archimedes’ Stomachion brings people together through play and discovery. Unlike the Tangram, which focuses on creating figures using its 7 pieces, the Stomachion not only lets you form shapes of people and animals — it also offers a truly satisfying challenge with countless possible solutions. AN EDUCATIONAL PUZZLE – Archimedes’ Stomachion is a surprisingly complex and sophisticated game. Its pieces reflect exceptional knowledge of mathematics and plane geometry: they include 11 triangles, 2 quadrilaterals, and one pentagon — all carefully designed to be perfectly commensurable with the square they form. PRODUCT SIZE & QUALITY – The Stomachion measures approximately 6.23 × 6.23 inches, and each tile is 0.11 inches thick. Every piece is laser-cut to ensure exceptional precision and a perfect, seamless fit. MATERIAL SAFETY – All pieces are made of lacquered wood and painted with non-toxic, EN 71.3-compliant colours. This product is entirely made and packaged in Italy.
