Remnants of a Mithraeum were discovered in the grounds of the farmer S. Oancea situated in the Cetatea of Alba Julia in 1930. About the construction of this sanctuary I have no information. It seems to date from the end of the second or the beginning of the third century A.D. The following finds, published by Christescu and Daicoviciu, are from this Mithraeum and are preserved at Alba Julia, Lyceum “Mihai Viteazul”.
