Gaius Iulius

The name of the dedicator is missing, as it would be unusual for Gaius Iulius, the beneficiary of the imprecation, to refer to himself in the third person. Pro salute is not a common formula in Mithraism, although it occurs four times in Hispania in connection with Deus Invictus or Sol Invictus, which would associate Deus Invictus with a salutary-medicinal function. It is noteworthy that in none of the four cases is the theonym Mithra explicitly mentioned. On the other hand, although the word Deo is above the moulding and therefore outside the epigraphic field, the size and shape of the letters do not give the impression that it was added later.
