Abstract
The presence of the Graeco-Egyptian deity Serapis in the Roman province Germania Inferior was examined by considering the finds that were done in the province that contained his name and/or image. These finds consist of inscriptions, statuettes, intaglios, a lamp and a lamp cover. Then, it was speculated how the worship of this deity so far from his place of origin was experienced by examining several case studies.
