Some places to visit

  • Niasar Cave

    The Niasar Cave, غار نیاسر, was a temple probably devoted to Iranian Mithras that dates back to the early Partian era.

     
  • Casa del Mitreo

    The name of this domus comes from the fact that some authors once associated one of its mosaics with the cult of Mithras, a connection that has since been dismissed.

     
  • Mithraea of Dülük

    The Mithraea of Doliche, ancient Dülük, Turkey, are unique in that they represent two distinct shrines on the same site.

     
  • Mithraeum of Aigio

    The underground cave which served as temple was cut into the conglomerate rock of the area, and a flight of eight steps of stone slabs led to it.
