The Mithraea of Doliche, ancient Dülük, Turkey, are unique in that they represent two distinct shrines on the same site.
In the 1900s a model Mithraeum was built in Saalburg in the mistaken belief that there was an original temple of Mithras in an ancient Roman building.
Roman building on the Aventine between the eastern side of S. Saba and Via Salvator, probably used as a Mithraeum at the end of the 4th century, with a long corridor bearing three semicircular niches and a large external basin.
The discovery of the Mithraeum of Tarquinia is due to the Department for Protection of Cultural Heritage of the Carabinieri, who noticed some clandestine excavations near the Ara della Regina.
