Azymites
Azymites. A name given to the Roman Catholic Church by the Orthodox at the time of the schism of 1054. It refers to the Latin use of unleavened bread (Gk., ta azyma) in the eucharist, which was a special object of attack from the Eastern side, since it was held to invalidate the eucharist.
