Mithra's Statue

sketchfab

Statue of the Roman God Mithra dated between 2nd and 3rd Century AD currently displayed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale Tarquiniense. This Persian deity was imported into the Roman Empire in the 1st Century AD, later officially incorporated into the Roman pantheon. Mithra is typically depicted as a young man wearing a Phrygian cap sacrificing a bull, and this sculpture, although incomplete, follows that portrayal.
