    After a valuable comprehensive survey of the literature on orthocentric simplices, the authors prove several results regarding orthocentric simplices in Euclidean spaces of finite dimension \(\geq 3\) (simplices in which the altitudes are concurrent), the main one being that orthocentric simplices in which either (1) all faces are congruent, or (2) any pair of centres (centroid, circumcentre, incentre, orthocentre) coincide, must be regular, i. e. have all edges congruent.
