Taurobolium

(重定向自Taurobolia)
Three sides of a taurobolium altar showing bucrania and a sacrificial knife, with a dedication[1] to the Great Idaean Mother of the Gods, from Lugdunum (Lyon)
Eroded inscription commemorating a taurobolium for the Magna Mater[12]

In the Roman Empire of the 2nd to 4th centuries, taurobolium referred to practices involving the sacrifice of a bull, which after mid-2nd century became connected with the worship of the Great Mother of the Gods; though not previously limited to her cultus, after 159 CE all private taurobolia inscriptions mention Magna Mater. Originating in Asia Minor, its earliest attested performance in Italy occurred in 134 CE, at Puteoli, in honor of Venus Caelestis, documented by an inscription.
