Summary
| Description |
English: Regio I, Insula XVII, 2.
The mithraeum was installed in the service area of the Baths of Mithras. Some walls of opus vittatum were added. The shrine was reached via a brick staircase. The shrine has a brick floor. On the floor, between the south ends of the podia, is a square brick base. In front is a small, plastered, triangular altar. Behind the podia a statue of Mithras about to kill the bull was found in situ, resting on a masonry base placed diagonally. The head of the god was illuminated in a dramatic way through a skylight. On the chest of the bull is the inscription: KRITΩΝ / AΘHNAIOΣ / EΠOIEI "Kriton the Athenian made (the statue)". |
