Iuliomagus, Roman archaeological site in Angers, France.

The excavated site contains remnants of ancient structures, including residential areas, public buildings, and a Mithraic temple from the Roman period.

Archaeological investigations between 2009 and 2010 revealed structures dating from the early Roman era, including a medical facility and urban street patterns.

The discovery of eight inscriptions, with seven dedicated to Mithras, indicates substantial religious practices in this western part of Roman Gaul.

Researchers continue investigations at the site, documenting artifacts, architectural elements, and evidence of daily life from the second to fifth centuries CE.

The location represents the westernmost evidence of Mithraic worship in Roman Gaul, with ritual objects and monetary deposits preserved in the temple ruins.
