L’antica città di Ostia rappresenta una fondamentale testimonianza per la conoscenza delle dinamiche archeologiche e storico-sociali delle religioni romane. Il sito ha restituito il maggior numero di mitrei noti in contesto urbano nel mondo romano, ai quali si è aggiunta nel 2013 la scoperta del Mitreo dei marmi colorati da parte del Progetto Ostia Marina dell'Università di Bologna. In seguito alla realizzazione di una ricerca dottorale dedicata a questo tema complesso, aggiornato con nuovi e moderni strumenti conoscitivi, il contributo in oggetto intende focalizzare l'attenzione sui rinvenimenti monetali avvenuti nei mitrei ostiensi, i quali, seppur sporadici, contribuiscono ad una più esatta ricostruzioni delle fasi di vita e abbandono di questi particolari luoghi di culto.
The ancient city of Ostia represents a fundamental testimony for the knowledge of the archaeological and socio-historical dynamics of Roman religions. The site has yielded the largest number of known mithraea in an urban context in the Roman world, to which was added in 2013 the discovery of the Mithraeum of Coloured Marbles by the Ostia Marina Project of the University of Bologna. Following the realisation of a doctoral research dedicated to this complex subject, updated with new and modern cognitive tools, the present contribution intends to focus on the monetary finds that occurred in the Ostiense mithraea, which, although sporadic, contribute to a more exact reconstruction of the life and abandonment phases of these particular places of worship.
