Los mismos regalos que a jesucristo se los hacían a Mitra:
No one can for a moment suppose that the Magi, who came to adore Jesus and his mother, were Christians, making Christian offerings; the context indeed paints them as Eastern Asiatics; and they are represented as making the same oblations as they would to Mithra, Mylitta, Mai-Mri, or Mriam, in their owndistrict.
Ancient Faiths vol. II pag.353 Thomas Inman
Aquí las similitudes entre Mitra y jesucristo:
The New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge, Vol XII:
Sobre Anahita y Mitra:
In ancient Iranian beliefs Mehr/Mithra was born of His Virgin Mother Anahita. In a temple, from 200 BCE in Iran, Anahita was referred to as "The Immaculate Virgin Mother of Lord Mithra". Mithra was known as king and the Son of God (Note: same story as Mary and Jesus). When Mithra dies, he is buried in a cave and then resurrected.(compare to the Eastern tradition in Christianity). The cult of Mithraism survived the longest in Armenia, which also became the first country to embrace Christianity as state religion.
Payam Nabarz indica que se trata de un templo seleúcida el que le llama progenitora virgen a Anahita.
Su libro: The Mysteries of Mithras: The Pagan Belief That Shaped the Christian World’
Es curioso que en Armenia coincidiera el culto más longevo a Mitra y el subsiguiente abrazo al cristianismo con tanto entusiasmo, parece que las similitudes ayudaron bastante. ¿O no?
En definitiva, los cultos se entremezclaban en la antigüedad, la originalidad era complicada.

Aquí las similitudes entre Mitra y jesucristo:
The New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge, Vol XII:
"The birth of Mithra and of Christ were celebrated on the same day; tradition placed the birth of both in a cave; both regarded Sunday as sacred; in both the central figure was a mediator (mesim) who was one of a triad or trinity; in both there was a sacrifice for the benefit of the race, and the purifying power of blood from the sacrifice was, though in different ways, a prime motive; regeneration or the second birth was a fundamental tenet in both; the conception of the relationship of the worshipers to each other was the same -- they were all brothers; both had sacraments, which baptism and a common meal of bread and the cup were included; both had mysteries from which the lower orders of initiates were excluded; ascetic ideals were common to both; the ideas of man, the soul and its immortality, heaven and hell, the resurrection of the dead, judgment after death, the final conflagration by which the world is to be consumed, the final conquest of evil, were quite similar"
