CIMRM Supplement - 1722 drawing of lamp with tauroctony.

This image appears in Bernard de Montfaucon, L'Antiquite expliquee et representee en figures, vol. 5.2: Les funerailles, les lampes, les suplices etc, Paris, 1822, between pages 228 and 229. On p.229 Montfaucon writes: "The following lamp represents a woman mounted on a bull, like those which we saw in the first volume of Mithras, and sometimes with the symbols of Mithras. It is a very difficult figure to explain, and for which we can give no explanation, because there is no inscription. Underneath the lamp is represented the combat between a bull and a lion."

Prof. Michael J. Fuller drew my attention to this item. The artist obviously thought that the cape of Mithras was wings.
