The New Mithraeum

Disce latinum cotidie

Glad to hear, Joel. Feel free to send some pics!

Born in the mists of history, Mithras, the deity of light, known for at least 3,500 years and still revered today, has appeared in different ages, religions and forms. This volume explores the sources of the god's history, with a focus on the Roman myths of Mithras.

Preamble and notes published by G. R. S. Mead in his series Echoes from the Gnosis 1907, London and Benares. Translation of the manuscript by Dieterich Eine Mithrasliturgie 1903, Leipzig.

Habesne paululum temporis?

Este es un libro que pretende esbozar un panorama general de los documentos mitraicos repartidos a lo largo del Imperio romano.

His name was added to the main tauroctony sculpture of the Mitreo Fagan.

This small magical jasper gem shows Sol in a quadrigra on the recto and Mithras as a bull slayer on the verso.

Welcome to your grotto, Marcus!

شب چله یا شب یلدا طولانی شب سال رازی را در خود پنهان داشته . در فرهنگ و تاریخ ایران باستان ، این شب تولد ایزد مهر و خورشید است چرا که از صبح روز اول دی روزها طولانی تر شده و روشنایی بر تاریکی پیروز میشود.

Extract from a documentary about the cult of Mithras.

Optio who erected several altars to Mithras in the Mithraeum of Sárkeszi.

This is one of the altars erected by Septimius Valentinus, in this case, to the transitus of Mithras.

In this relief found in the Sárkeszi Mithraeum, Cautes and Cautopates hold an Amazon shield.

The Sárkeszi mithraeum is unusual for its large dimensions and its semicircular eastern wall.
