Details
A vital feature of every Mithraeum (temple) is the depiction of Mithras killing the primordial bull.  This replica of a Tauroctony  is based on examples  excavated  throughout the Roman empire, including an example that is now on display in York Museum. 

Materials

Earthenware, terracotta

Dimensions

Approx. 300 mm tall, 280 mm diameter

Production

This replica Roman pot has been hand made in Northumberland by Potted History, based on an original artefact.  It has been fired to emulate the authentic Roman firing conditions, to a temperature of between 800°C & 1000°C, as the original potters would have done nearly two thousand years ago. This process often results in variations of the surface colour and texture, as is found with original Roman Pottery and giving each pot it's unique character.
