Chalcedon. City in Asia Minor near Constantinople and venue of the fourth ecumenical council in 451. By drawing up a statement of faith, the so-called Chalcedonian definition, it attempted to end the controversy between Alexandrian and Antiochene christologies. The strong Monophysite party in the E. never accepted the definition, and until Islamic times repeated attempts were made by ‘neo-Chalcedonians’ to remove its offence without actually rescinding it. The Oriental Orthodox churches still remain ‘non-Chalcedonian’.
