Cathari (katharos, “pure”), was another name given to many widely diffused heretical Christian sects of the Middle Ages.
Included under the general name of Cathari were the Novatians, a sect originating in the 3rd century that advocated the denial of church membership to Christians who had "fallen," that is who had denied Christ in the Roman persecutions.
The Cathari reached their greatest numbers in southern France; here they were called Albigenses or Poblicants, the latter term being a corruption of Paulicians, with whom they were confused.
