The New Mithraeum Database

This black marble of Mithras killing the Bull has belonged to the sculptor Carlo Albacini.

The Mithraeum of the Animals was decorated with a mosaic depicting a naked man, a cock, a raven, an scorpion, a snake and the head of the bull.

This scene of the main fresco of the Mithraeum Barberini seems to depict part of the initiation into the Mithraic Mysteries.
