The hexadecintercepted tesseract, or hinnit, is a nonconvex uniform polychoron that consists of 8 cuboctahedra and 16 truncated tetrahedra. 3 cuboctahedra and 6 truncated tetrahedra join at each vertex.

It is wild because it has cuboctahedra intercepted by hexagons.

It also has 16 tetrahedra as pseudofacets.
