So it is not suprising that we find religious rites which are very close to christian practices in a field untouched by classical cultures. In mithraism and xhosa rite of umoshwamo are religions that sprang up not long ago before christianity. In mithraism we find a set of sacrificial symbols, theres a transitus with mithras( a parallel of jesus) carrying the bull, a bull sacrifice for seasonal fertility, the mithraic transitus is a motif that corresponds to christ carrying the cross just as the transformation of the beast corresponds to the death and ressurection of the christian God in the form of ffod and drink. Also in the xhosa ritual called umoshwamo or holy meal is saturated with conceptions of this kind. The holy meal or umoshwamo which takes place on the day of the falling of the beast ukuwiswa kwenkabi yenkomo is termed iyeza or medicine. Falling of the beast means the day the animal is sacrificed. During umoshwamo is given some sacred words are said and the kraal becomes an altar.
