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 a canonical polyhedron. 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. However, it was once mistakenly considered a rhombicuboctahedron by many mathematicians. For this reason, it is also known as the pseudo-rhombicuboctahedron, Miller solid, or Miller–Askinuze solid.
