Altar of Nummius Amandus from Alba Iulia

TNMM 643 ↔ CIMRM 1951

For two centuries, isolated finds, sometimes reused, often without a known place of origin, have provided further information about the Mithraic communities of Apulum. Two dedicatory inscriptions tell us about the founders of Mithraic sanctuaries.

On [this] altar discovered in 1878, or shortly before, as a replacement in a cemetery, Caius Nummius Amandus, a Roman citizen, recalls that he also built a templum for Mithras.

A decurion and flamine from the Septimian municipe of Apulum does the same on a monument found in 1998 in the bed of the Mureş, although it is not possible to link either of these texts to the supposed mithraea mentioned above.
