Good morning from Hadrians Wall ☀️ (specifically the mithraeum at Brocolitia!)

Happy winter solstice!🌞 I travelled to the Mithraeum at Brocolitia on Hadrians Wall to see the suns alignment with the temple… and the Northern weather really delivered 🤣

Mithraeum, Guildhall, then walked to Mayfair. 13k steps, the wine is well earned. Cheers pals x

Remains of the temple of Mithras deep beneath the street. Now part of an interactive experience at the London Mithraeum

A frolicking bull plaque from #Roman Londonium. Made from lead & maybe representing Taurus ♉️

Found near the Walbrook River but it actually predates the Mithraeum by a couple of centuries.

Kronos mithriaque provenant du mithraeum de Sidon au Liban. Cette statue de dieu léontocéphale appartient aux collections du Louvre et elle était présentée au Louvre-Lens dans l’exposition « Mondes souterrains ».

Thrice I've visited Carrawburgh Mithraeum: once as a boy and twice in the last few years. Such a lovely and atmospheric site for #RomanSiteSaturday

#MosaicMonday with the Mithraeum of the Seven Gates at Ostia Antica (Regio IV.V.13).

The mosaic in the floor that gives this Mithraeum its name. The seven gates are a reference to the seven planetary spheres through which the souls of the initiates passed.

Ce matin visite du Mithraeum de Londres, sanctuaire consacré au culte du dieu Mithra daté des années 240 en plein cœur de la City, un lieu remarquablement mis en valeur.

London Mithraeum. Very cool use of lighting #roman

From my photo archive for #RomanSiteSaturday - the sunken Mithraeum Temple outside the southwest corner of Brocolitia Roman Fort on #HadriansWall in early spring with its replica stone altars.
This place is often atmospheric especially around sunset.

The London Mithraeum is imaginatively displayed under the @bloomberg.com HQ. Discovered in 1954, the remains have been reconstructed in the present location, nearer to its original Walbrook site. Dated to the mid 3rd century AD.

Storms forecast and rain across the country so here’s a pic of the Mithraeum at Carrawburgh on Hadrian’s Wall on a sunnier day

Good morning! As I woke, shaft of sunlight across my torso, I remembered a Roman Twelfth-century church that was built over a Fourth-century church that was built over a Second-century Mithraeum that was built over a warehouse that burned down in 64 AD. Time for coffee.

For #AdoorableThursday a rare find: a piece of a #Roman wooden door found during the excavations at the Bloomberg building. Well-preserved due to the damp soil of the lost Walbrook river under the City of #London. Dating 43-100 AD

On display at London Mithraeum
