Patriarch Nikon

1605 CE to 1681 CE

Nikon, born Nikita Minin (Никита Минин; 7 May 1605 Valmanovo, Russia—17 August 1681), is the seventh patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church.

This is one of the most important periods in the Church's history, as Nikon introduces many reforms which eventually lead to a lasting schism known as Raskol in the Russian language.
