Saturnalia. A pagan tradition rehashed by Christianity.
Some authors have drawn parallels between the circumstances of Mithras' and Jesus' birth: Joseph Campbell described it as a virgin birth,[29] and Martin A. Larson noted that Mithras was said to have been born on December 25, or the winter solstice.[30] This theory is in contradiction to the traditional understanding of Mithras' birth. In Mithraic Studies it stated that Mithras was born as an adult from solid rock, "wearing his Phrygian cap, issues forth from the rocky mass. As yet only his bare torso is visible. In each hand he raises aloft a lighted torch and, as an unusual detail, red flames shoot out all around him from the petra genetrix."[31] David Ulansey speculates that this was a belief derived from the Perseus' myths which held he was born from an underground cavern.[32]
