The New Mithraeum Database

The existence of a mithraeum in the "tana del lupo", a natural cave in the castle of Angera, has been assumed since the 19th century, following the discovery of two mithraic inscriptions in the town.

This marble base found in Angera in 1868 bears the inscription of two people who reached the degree of Leo.

In this inscription, found in Angera in Lombardy, Mithras is referred to by the unicum 'adiutor'.

Gaius Valerius Iulianus was a lion who erected an altar to Cautopates in Statio, the present-day Angera, with his brother Marcus.
