We consider face-to-face partitions of bounded polytopes into convex polytopes in for arbitrary and examine their colourability. In particular, we prove that the chromatic number of any simplicial partition does not exceed . Partitions of polyhedra in into pentahedra and hexahedra are - and -colourable, respectively. We show that the above numbers are attainable, i.e., in general, they cannot be reduced.
