Zusammenfassung:A roman altar with an inscription dedicated to Mithras was found in the area of Teutoburgium 42 years ago. Although it is part of Vukovar City Museum’s permanent display (inv. no AZ-550), until now it had never been published in the scholarly literature. In this paper the inscription will be reconstructed, analysed and interpreted for the first time. Additionally, the other, published Mithraic altar from Teutoburgium (CIMRM II, 1635) will be reconsidered. It will be concluded that both of them belonged to the same time period and that they ornated one or two unlocated temples. Rimski žrtvenik posvećen Mitri nađen je na području Teutoburgija prije četrdeset dvije godine. Iako je dio stalnoga postava Gradskoga Muzeja Vukovar (inv. br. AZ-550), dosad nije objavljen u znanstvenoj literaturi. U radu se prvi puta rekonstruira, analizira i interpretira natpis na spomeniku. Osim toga, iznova se razmatra i drugi, već objavljeni žrtvenik posvećen Mitri iz Teutoburgija (CIMRM II, 1635). Zaključak je da pripadaju istome razdoblju i da su ukrašavali jedno ili više zasad nelociranih svetišta.
