The 'symbols' are greek letters, which doubled as numbers.

Greek was the educated and trade language of Egypt, and the eastern Mediterranean, at the time.

Looks like some of the symbols may be planets?

I have satisfied my curiosity regarding the regular polyhedra. Some time ago I copied and pasted the photo of this green icosahedron into my collection. Yesterday I was in Laguna Beach CA contemplating the narrative that I'm working on. This icosahedron die came to my mind and is being beautifully incorporated into the story. So big thanks to whoever posted this photo online. As far as what did the Romans play? Whatever they played they could have learned that only from one source. The source is the essence of the writings of Zecharia Sitchin. I am curious what alphabet, what letters are on the triangles - is the o with a dot inside the o the Egyptians used to describe the eye?
