      Root lattices allow a very efficient and systematic determination of their Voronoi and Delaunay cells together with the complete hierarchy of faces. Representatives w.r.t. the Weyl group action are specified by a simple diagram technique based on the corresponding Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, with emphasis on the duality between faces of the Voronoi cell and faces of the Delaunay cell. The classification presented is helpful for the construction of standard quasicrystals [cf. the reviewer, \textit{D. Joseph}, \textit{P. Kramer} and \textit{M. Schlottmann}, J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 23, No. 19, L1037--L1041 (1990; Zbl 0716.52006) and \textit{P. Kramer} and \textit{M. Schlottmann}, J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 22, No. 23, L1097--L1102 (1989; Zbl 0719.52011)].
