Council of Manzikert
Date726
Accepted by
Manzikert (Manazkert).[1][2]

Both the Armenian church and the Syriac were

Paulicians.[4]

The Syriac church, which disagreed with many distinctive Armenian customs, was not entirely pleased with the outcome at Manzikert, but accepted communion with the Armenians nonetheless. The canons of Manzikert are often credited with confirming the Armenian church in its distinctive non-Chalcedonian theology and setting it apart from other churches. After the council, Armenian Chalcedonism was suppressed.[1]
