Hyperbolic icosahedral tilings by Bucky-balls with 4 or 8 Bucky-balls sharing a vertex are considered as an example of tilings by Archimedean polyhedra. Representation requires Poincaré balls; Colour symmetry may be derived by GAP. Colour symmetries preserving both rotation and reflection symmetry as well as only rotation symmetry are discussed.
