Since we are talking about polyhedrons, in Random House we have:

pol·y·he·dron (polÅ" h"ÆdrÃn), n., pl. -drons, -dra (-drÃ).
a solid figure having many faces. See illus. under dodecahedron, icosahedron, octahedron, pentahedron, tetrahedron.
[1560–70; < Gk polýedron, neut. of polýedros having many bases. See POLY-, -HEDRON]
