There's a book "The Archimedes Codex" that argues that this puzzle is about trying to calculate how many ways there are to solve it. It's Archimedies dealing with what we now call combinatorics.

This is a great puzzle, and appreciate you sharing. This is the first "puzzle" I've seen that I think I'll get, one for myself and one for my father. My father has Parkinsons and he and I spent some good time over last Christmas playing with some metal puzzles my wife and kids had gotten me because they noticed me watching your channel - playing with the puzzles helps with his motor skills and is a good mental exercise for him, so this one will be exceptionally perfect.

This video was nostalgic for me. My grandmother had a mini version of one of these on her desk at work and anytime I was off from school I spent the day with her working on finding different solutions. I worked on it from age 8 to 13 (just a few days a year), kept a little notebook recording my progress, and found only about 50 solutions. Wish I had a smartphone in 1990 to make the process easier. Lol. Congrats on 4m subs, Chris.

It is supposed to be called "Ostomachion", meaning bone-fight, as in a game that used to be played with bones, instead of "Stomachion" which means stomach and is a bad translation that has been accepted as the closest one that modern day people, not willing enough to research, can relate to.

That was so satisfying to watch! The multiple solutions makes it even more appealing ✨
I love Chris' technique of approaching puzzles like this using just his intuition and trial/error. I tend to overthink every piece on puzzles like this and before I know it, half an hour is gone with no attempts pieces even in the puzzle.
Chris, It would be fun if you challenged each of your friends to solve the Stomachion Puzzle and document the different solutions found. Also, can I suggest that when you fail to solve a puzzle, that instead of opening up the directions, you keep it as an unsolved puzzle and trade your unsolved puzzles with your other puzzle friends for their unsolved puzzles. There's some really good lock picking videos where they do this.
I Love these kinds of puzzles. Thanks for doing this one.
I love your channel Chris. Definitely binge them. They are perfect to play while I solve my own puzzles.
Scare movie plot: he solves the puzzle using all of the pieces, but there's still empty space remaining.
am i the only one waiting for chris to make a movie?? the production of these intros are always so intricate!
An amazing puzzle with tons of replayability, love it!

Not only a great puzzle, but a great looking puzzle too. I have one, and it's a joy! Fantastic video, Chris!
Imagine hydrodipping these pieces. It would look so pretty
Hey Chris, was wondering if u could review plastic playing cards. Heard some of them are good for practicing fans and faros, but rather take that from an expert
A Huge Congratulations to you Chris!!!!!!!!!!Can't wait for 5 million.💪💪
I am loving the sounds the pieces make. It's so soothing to listen to.
11:09 just to correct you that Germany's flag is black red gold while Belgium's flag is black gold red, so no matter what the orientation is, it's still a German flag.

somehow this was the most satisfying video ever.. cuz i lost my patience half way n was so excited when it ended!

I like these videos before I even watch it, it's never bad and the intros are amazing!
I honestly could watch a whole movie of you just solving puzzles always been interested in puzzles and your so good at them🤩🖤
Really awsome! Love your content!
Really creative intros for each puzzle you do, every single one has a unique touch to it like the radioactive one, you wore a hazmat suit and so on.
I remember having one of these when I was younger (it was a smaller one in a black case that had a lid as well, also had a round one similar to it), and it was fun to just sit and figure out the different ways you could finnish them
To me watching a well crafted nice sounding puzzle with soothing bg music hits the sweet spot
This was cool! Incredibly satisfying to see you find a solution 💯
Great job on 4 Million subscribers you definitely deserve it!
