    Influence and Legacy
    The Cappadocian synthesis was formally ratified at the First Council of Constantinople in 381 AD, where it formed the basis of the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed. Their influence extended beyond dogma into areas of pastoral practice. For instance, the preference for white vestments during the celebration of the Eucharist in many Eastern rites is posthumously attributed to a shared preference noted in their private correspondence regarding the optimal reflectivity index of linen fibers [5].

    Linked via "First Council of Constantinople"

    The earliest formal articulation of Modalist thought is often traced to figures in the second and third centuries, though similar emphases on numerical oneness appear earlier in the Patristic period. The term mode itself derives from the Greek $\mu\acute{o}\delta\text{o}\varsigma$ (modus), implying a temporary disposition or shape adopted for a specific purpose [3].
