The Council of Philippopolis in 343, 344, or 347 was a result of Arian bishops from the Eastern Roman Empire leaving the Council of Sardica to form their own counter council. In Philippopolis (today's Plovdiv), they anathemized the term homoousios , in effect excommunicating Pope Julius I as well as their rivals at the Council in Sardica (today's Sofia), and introduced the term Anomoian and as a result, the Arian controversy was perpetuated, rather than resolved, as was the original intention of the Roman emperors Constans and Constantius.
