Inv.: 87.1.50 Cautopatès and Cautès were the two companions of Mithra, the god whose cult was extremely popular throughout the Roman empire from the 2nd century, and which disappeared during the 4th century due to competition from Christianity. This limestone statue discovered in 1986 in the Temple of Bordeaux presents Cautopatès in the usual style, dressed in oriental fashion like the god Mithra himself, with a Phrygian cap and cape painted in red.
