'''Agnoetae''' was a monophysite sect who maintained that Jesus was God but his human form was like others in all respects, including limited knowledge. Its founder was Themistius, a Deacon in Alexandria in the 6th_century. The sect was anathematized by Pope_Gregory_I on the basis of a treatise against them by Eulogius I, the Orthodox Patriarch of Alexandria.[Monks, George. "The Church of Alexandria and the City's Economic Life in the Sixth Century". ''Speculum'' April 1953 pp. 349-362.]
The name was derived from the Greek ''agnoeo'' meaning "to be ignorant of."
