Eutychianism

See Eutyches. A fifth-century presbyter and archimandrite of Constantinople whose teaching — that Christ’s humanity was so overwhelmed by His divinity as to be effectively absorbed — was condemned at Chalcedon and has been rejected by both Eastern and Oriental Orthodox from the outset. Many post-Chalcedonian, anti-non-Chalcedonian texts equate Eutychianism, monophysitism, and the Oriental Orthodox groups (i.e. “Armenians”, “Copts”) in charged discourse. The Eutychian heresy is monophysitism, but the Oriental Orthodox are not, and wrongly labeled, monophysites (and thus followers of Eutyches)
