Tercera entrega de la trilogía de Jaime Alvar dedicada al estudio de los cultos a dioses procedentes de Oriente en la Península Ibérica.
Mithras explores the history and practices of the ancient mystery religion Mithraism, looking at both literary and material evidence for the god Mithras and the reception and allure of his mysteries in the present.
The starting point of this study of the initiation into the cult of Mithras are the 462 sites where traces of the cult have been found to date. They form the framework of the study.
