One of the most intricate solar alignments in North America lies in a group of shallow caves in the Oklahoma panhandle. Could the petroglyphs and associated shadow display's true meaning be seeded in the ancient secret religion known as Mithras? Did ancient traveler's in the New World leave a Monument to Mithras so that initiates could learn the secrets to climb to higher grades in their mystery religion? No written narratives or theology from the religion survive, with limited information to be derived from the inscriptions. Worshippers of Mithras had a complex system of seven grades of initiation, with ritual meals, initiates met in temples (called mithraea), which survive in large numbers.There is evidence for astronomical usage as part of the Mithraea as well. Phil Leonard has spent 30 years investigating the history and mystery of the "Anubis Caves". This is the author's thorough explanation of the intricate correlations of the mystery religion and to America's Monument to Mithras.
