Eutyches was a controversial and polemical monastic teacher active in Constantinople in the early fifth century. He opposed dyophysite (two-nature) Christology, but the precise nature of his own one-nature Christology is uncertain. He was condemned in 448 at a synod, restored in 449 at the Second Council of Ephesus, and condemned again at the Council of Chalcedon where he was championed by the Syriac monk Barsauma. In later theological discussions, Eutyches' one-nature Christology was equally condemned by Chalcedonian theologians and the Coptic and Syriac Orthodox Churches.
His early life, of which hardly anything is known, was evidently as a monk, and then an archimandrite, in Constantinople where, by 448, he and his teaching evidently had an influential following.
